Julius II Adam 1852 München - 1913 München Spielende Katzenfamilie im Wald. Um 1860/70. Öl auf Leinwand. Rechts oben signiert. 27,5 x 40 cm (10,8 x 15,7 in). PROVENIENZ: Privatsammlung Bayern. Julius II Anton Adam wird als Sohn des Lithografen und Fotografen Julius (I) Adam und als Enkel des Pferdemalers Albrecht Adam in München in eine bereits hoch angesehene Künstlerfamilie geboren. Bis 1882 widmet sich Adam hauptsächlich der Genremalerei und setzt sich damit anfänglich bewusst von den Tierdarstellungen ab, die in der Malerfamilie Adam vorherrschen. Mitte der 1880er Jahre findet ein Katzenbild von ihm jedoch so großen Anklang im Münchner Kunstverein, dass er sich fortan fast ausschließlich der Katzenmalerei widmet. In feinmalerisch präziser Technik verbindet er die genauen Licht- und Farbbeobachtungen des weichen Fells mit der genauen Beobachtung ihrer Bewegungen. So wird der Künstler bei seinen Zeitgenossen als 'Katzenraffael' oder 'Katzenadam' bekannt. Im Werben um Aufmerksamkeit und Käuferschaft ist dies nicht zuletzt als Strategie zu verstehen, das eigene Schaffen unverwechselbar zu etablieren. Mehrere seiner Bilder werden auf der Internationalen Kunstausstellung München mit der Goldenen Medaille ausgezeichnet, wodurch er nicht zuletzt unter den Münchner Tiermalern der Gründerzeit eine bedeutende Stellung einnimmt. [KT] Aufrufzeit: 10.06.2023 - ca. 18.00 h +/- 20 Min. Dieses Objekt wird regel- oder differenzbesteuert angeboten.ENGLISH VERSIONJulius II Adam 1852 München - 1913 München Spielende Katzenfamilie im Wald. Um 1860/70. Oil on canvas. Signed in upper right. 27.5 x 40 cm (10.8 x 15.7 in). PROVENANCE: Private collection Bavaria. Julius II Anton Adam was born into a highly respected family of artists in Munich, the son of the lithographer and photographer Julius (I) Adam and the grandson of the horse painter Albrecht Adam. Until 1882, Adam devoted himself mainly to genre painting and made works that were clearly distinguishable from the animal depictions typical of the Adams family. In the mid-1880s, however, a cat picture he had made was so well received at the Munich Kunstverein, that he decided to paint nothing but cats from then on. Using a precise, fine-painting technique, he combined light and color observations of the soft fur with exact observations of their movements. Eventually, the artist became known as 'Cat Raphael' or 'Cat Adam'. In trying to get the attention of buyers, establishing an unmistakable brand nothing less than a necessary marketing strategy. Several of his paintings were awarded the gold medal at the International Art Exhibition in Munich, which earned him an important position among the Munich animal painters of the Wilhelminian period. [KT] Called up: June 10, 2023 - ca. 18.00 h +/- 20 min. This lot can be purchased subject to differential or regular taxation.
Christian Landenberger 1862 Ebingen - 1927 Stuttgart Badende Knaben. 1915. Öl auf Leinwand. Links unten signiert und datiert. 56 x 77 cm (22 x 30,3 in). Wir danken Herrn Dr. Heinz Höfchen für die freundliche wissenschaftliche Beratung. Das Werk ist im Nachtrag des Werkverzeichnisses registriert. PROVENIENZ: Privatsammlung Baden-Württemberg. Christian Landenberger zählt zu den Malern, die sich in Deutschland schon früh mit der Freilichtmalerei impressionistischer Prägung beschäftigen. Von 1883 bis 1885 studiert er an der Münchner Kunstakademie, wendet sich allerdings kurz darauf zu einem unakademisch geprägten, unmittelbaren Zugang zur Malerei hin, bei der neue Entwicklungen vor allem in der Landschaft entstehen. Schließlich ist er 1892 Gründungsmitglied der Münchner Secession, bei deren Ausstellungen er bis 1916 regelmäßig präsent ist. Ein Motiv des Impressionismus, mit dem er sich ab 1893 immer wieder neu auseinandersetzt, sind die badenden Knaben. Sommerliche Malaufenthalte hatten ihn wiederholt an den Bodensee und den Ammersee geführt, wo die Umgebung ihm die perfekten Bedingungen für die Umsetzung von Lichteffekten, atmosphärischen Stimmungen und gelöster Einheit von Mensch und Natur in seinen Werken darbietet. Hinzu kommt die Beobachtung der natürlichen Bewegungen und Körperhaltungen der Kinder ohne jegliche Gekünsteltheit. Besonders die Wasseroberfläche ermöglicht einen irisierenden, von der Lokalfarbe abgelösten Einsatz der Farbe, deren Auftrag ganz in lockerem und spontanem Duktus erfolgt. Für eines dieser Motive, 'Sommerabend am See' von 1904 (Neue Pinakothek, München) erhält er auf der X. Internationalen Kunstausstellung im Glaspalast München die Goldmedaille. Die 'Badenden Knaben', ein Motiv, dem sich nicht zuletzt auch Max Liebermann ab den späten 1890er Jahren in über 30 Versionen mit großem Erfolg widmete, gehört so zu den zentralen Themen des deutschen Impressionismus, ist somit für Landenbergers Schaffen von zentraler Bedeutung. [KT] Aufrufzeit: 10.06.2023 - ca. 18.38 h +/- 20 Min. Dieses Objekt wird regel- oder differenzbesteuert angeboten.ENGLISH VERSIONChristian Landenberger 1862 Ebingen - 1927 Stuttgart Badende Knaben. 1915. Oil on canvas. Lower left signed and dated. 56 x 77 cm (22 x 30.3 in). We are grateful to Dr. Heinz Höfchen for his kind expert advice. The work is mentioned in the addenda of the catlogue raisonné. PROVENANCE: Private collection Baden-Württemberg. Christian Landenberger is one of the painters in Germany who dealt with plein-air painting in impressionist manner from early on. From 1883 to 1885, he studied at the Munich Art Academy, but shortly thereafter turned to an unacademic, direct approach to painting, from which new developments emerged, especially in the landscape genre. In 1892, he was a founding member of the Munich Secession, and regularly showed works in the exhibitions until 1916. One motif of Impressionism, which he repeatedly dealt with from 1893, are the bathing boys. Summer painting stays had repeatedly taken him to Lake Constance and Ammersee, where the surroundings offered him the perfect conditions for the implementation of light effects, atmospheric moods and the relaxed unity of man and nature, as well as the observation of the children's natural movements and postures without any artificiality. The surface of the water in particular allows for an iridescent use of color that is detached from the local color and is applied in a very relaxed and spontaneous style. For one of these motifs, 'Sommerabend am See' (Summer Evening by the Lake, Neue Pinakothek, Munich) from 1904, he received the gold medal at the 10th International Art Exhibition in the Glass Palace in Munich. The 'Badenden Knaben', a motif to which Max Liebermann devoted himself in more than 30 versions from the late 1890s with great success, is one of the central themes of German Impressionism and is therefore of central importance for Landenberger's work.

FA Cup medal from 1877, 'Football Association Challenge Cup Wanderers 1877'. 2.5 cm diameter. Wanderers Football Club was an English association football club. It was founded as "Forest Football Club" in 1859 in Leytonstone. In 1864, it changed its name to "Wanderers", a reference to it never having a home stadium, instead playing at various locations in London and the surrounding area. Comprising mainly former pupils of the leading English public schools, Wanderers was one of the dominant teams in the early years of organised football and won the inaugural Football Association Challenge Cup (now known as the FA Cup) in 1872. The club won the competition five times in total, including three in succession from 187678, a feat which has been repeated only once. The 1877 FA Cup final was a football match between Wanderers and Oxford University on 24 March 1877 at Kennington Oval in London. It was the sixth final of the world's oldest football competition, the Football Association Challenge Cup (known in the modern era as the FA Cup). Wanderers were the reigning cup-holders and had won the competition three times in total. Wanderers won the match 2-1.
