Attributed to Ludwig RICHTER (1803–1884) - Lot 26
Attributed to Ludwig RICHTER (1803–1884)
Italian Landscape, with Mount Vesuvius in the Background
Oil on canvas
Unsigned
32.5 x 40.5 cm
Normal signs of wear.
Provenance:
The Dreher family (wealthy Dresden notables from the 1820s to the 1890s)
Later inherited by the de la Horbe family.
Ludwig Richter studied under the tutelage of his father, Carl, and worked with him
for about a dozen years. In 1823, he undertook his first trip to
Italy and visited Rome, Naples, and the surrounding countryside, producing
numerous studies and modelli. His second trip to Italy is believed to have taken place in
1836, before he was appointed professor in Dresden.
His most captivating paintings were created in various sizes. A
painting with the same subject as ours but of larger dimensions was
offered for sale in Germany in 2020.
