Deutsches Reich 1933 - 1945 - Führende Persönlichkeiten des 3.Reiches : Führerstandarte.Bedeutende großformatige Führerstandarte für den persönlichen Gebrauch des Führers und Reichskanzlers Adolf Hitler. Die Führerstandarte, also die persönlich von Adolf Hitler benutzten Standarte, wurde bei offiziellen Anlässen wie Truppenparaden oder den Reichsparteitagen in Nürnberg, aber auch bei großen Parteiveranstaltungen und Staatsakten verwendet. Es existierten je nach Bedeutung des Anlasses oder des Verwendungszweckes unterschiedliche Ausführungen. Die Standarten für den Führer wurden nicht wie die Wehrmachtsstandarten in reglementierter Form hergestellt, sondern je nach Anlaß und Bedeutung bei unterschiedlichen Herstellern in Auftrag gegeben. Es existiert daher ein breites Spektrum an Ausführungen von den aus einfachem Segeltuch gefertigten Führerstandarten für Schiffe und Boote über die auf den Grabschleifen für Staatsbegräbnisse verwendeten gestickten verkleinerten Standarten bis hin zu außerordentlich aufwendigen Exemplaren für den persönlichen Gebrauch Adolf Hitlers, wie dem hier angebotenen Stück. Die hier angebotene Standarte ist vonaußerordentlich aufwendiger, besonders plastisch ausgeführter Stickereiqualität. Die Standarte zeigt auf einem weißen runden Feld mit eingewobenen versilberten Metallfäden ein schwarzes, aufrecht stehendes Hakenkreuz mit weißen Kanten in die ebenfalls Metallfäden eingewoben wurden. Das Hoheitssymbol umgeben von einem im hohen Relief gestickten Eichenkranz mit plastischen, sich überlappenden Eichenblätterm aus vergoldeten Metallfäden und Silberlahn in unterschiedlichen Schattierungen. In den vier Ecken der Standarte befinden sich je zwei goldgestickte "Wehrmachtsadler", bzw. zwei goldfarbene NSDAP - Parteiadler. Die Ausführung in kaum zu überbietender allerbester Goldfadenstickerei bei der durch die Verwendung unterschiedlicher Materialien und Techniken eine ungeheuer wirkungsvolle Plastizität mit subtilem Licht- und Schatteneffekt erzielt wurde. Die Standarte ist einseitig gearbeitet und wurde daher sehr warscheinlich vornehmlich bei großen politischen Veranstaltungen für das Rednerpodium oder für die Führerloge bei Opernbesuchen, etc. verwendet. Die Standarte weißt deutliche Alters- und Gebrauchspuren auf, ein Hinweis darauf, daß sie zu einer Vielzahl von Anlässen geführt wurde. In vergleichbar beeindruckender Qualität sind nur einige wenige Exemplare weltweit bekannt. Als eines der wichtigsten Symbole des Dritten Reiches ein außerordentlich bedeutendes museales Liebhaberstück von historischem und zeitgeschichtlichem Wert und hervorragend für eine museale Ausstellung geeignet. 98,5 x 92,5 cm. The Third German Reich 1933 - 1945 - Leading Personalities of the 3rd Reich : Führer Standard.Important large size Führer standard for the personal use of the Führer and Reichs Chancellor Adolf Hitler. The Führer Standard standard was used by Adolf Hitler on official occasions such as military parades or the Reichs Party Rally in Nuremberg along with major party events and state events. There were different versions depending on the significance of the occasion or the purpose of its use. These standards were not produced in a regulated form like the Wehrmacht regimentaln standards, but were commissioned by different manufacturers depending on the occasion and significance. Therefore, there are a number of very different versions ranging from the simple linen styles for ships and boats to the smaller embroidered styles used on the wreath bows for state funerals. Large elaborate styles were reserved for the personal use of Adolf Hitler, such as the example offered here at auction. Our "Führerstandarte" is a magnificent piece of outstanding embroidered quality. The standard features a black, upright swastika with white edges on a white circular field with interwoven silver-plated bullion threads. It is surrounded by a highly vaulted embroidered oak leaf wreath with overlapping oak leaves made of gold-plated bullion and silver threads in different shades. In each corner of the standard there are two gold embroidered Wehrmacht - Eagles and two gold embrpidered NSDAP party eagles. This Führerstandarte features the very best gold bullion thread embroidery. The use of different materials and techniques to create a three-dimensional effect is quite stunning. A subtle light and shadow effect is achieved through this process. The standard is one-sided and was therefore most likely used at large political events for the speaker's podium or for the Führer's private booth at operas, etc. The standard shows clear signs of age and use, an indication that it was used on numerous occasions. In this stunning and impressive quality, only a few examples are known worldwide. As one of the most important symbols of the Third Reich, it is an extraordinarily important collector's item of historical value. Ideally suited for a museum exhibition. Measures 98.5 x 92.5 cm.

The envelope houses a large folded sheet of the same black paper, which unfolds to 216 x 124 cm, into the shape of a '7'. The multiple was meant as a protest against Documenta 7's Western-centric perspective and was mailed to a selective group of international art-world insiders.This copy is accompanied by a telegram dated March 17 1979 sent by the artist and Corps de Garde to Cahen and Crouwel, inviting them to the announcement of the 5 continent documenta 7 at the Groninger Museum on March 19. At this event the artist, dressed in his signature golden suit and hat, pasted the '7' onto a wall. Super scarce item rarely seen with the telegram. The gilt text has faded but is still legible, else a very good copy. (total 2)
