Adalbert Waagen Munich, 1834 – Bertesgaden, 1898 On the shores of Lake Tegern in Southern Bavaria Oil on panel Signed and dated lower left "A. Waagen. 1857" Located on the reverse "Gegend am Tegern See" 25 x 40 cm (39 x 53 cm with frame) Very good condition Beautiful 19th-century carved and gilded wood frame Adalbert Waagen was a German landscape painter. He painted primarily landscapes, and more specifically mountain landscapes. His style was influenced by his teacher, Zimmermann, through Joseph Anton Koch. Leopold, Prince Regent of Bavaria, bestowed upon him the honorary title of Royal Professor in 1891. His works are held in the Martin von Wagner Museum, the Julius Maximilian University of Würzburg, and the Munich City Museum. Waagen first studied with Albert Zimmermann in Munich between 1855 and 1858. Our painting, dated "1857," dates from this period. After completing his studies in 1860, Waagen established his studio in Munich, in the home of his friend Karl Millner. He regularly undertook study trips with Hermann Krüger and other students to the mountains of Old Bavaria and Tyrol. Our painting, in fact, is set in southern Bavaria, "near Lake Tergen." Waagen's style became broader and more realistic at this time, both in its atmosphere and its use of color. Waagen became a central figure in the vibrant artistic circle of "Young Munich," alongside Otto Stöger, Theodor Pixis, Georg Kremplsetzer, August Spieß, Friedrich and Heinrich Lossow...

Théophile Clément BLANCHARD 1820 - 1849 Oil on canvas 27 x 40 cm (45 x 58 cm with the frame) Signed lower right "Blanchard" Very nice 19th century gilded wooden frame French painter, lithographer and illustrator, Théophile Clément Blanchard is part of of those painters of the romantic era who represented picturesque views of France like Alexis Daligé de Fontenay or Eugène Cicéri. These painters traveled a lot and sought out picturesque sites, particularly in Normandy, Brittany, Switzerland and the Pyrenees. Blanchard participated in the illustration of “Picturesque and Romantic Travels in the Old France”. But the works of this romantic painter are rare because Blanchard died very young at twenty-nine year old ! We still know of him, in particular, a view of Bugey (dated 1846) which is at the Louvre Museum and a “Delicious Landscape” (from the 1840s) at the Salies museum at Bagnères de Bigorre...
