Das Ständchen . Um 1875. Oil on panel. Inscribed with the ownership "G G Elberfeld" on the reverse. 20.5 x 13 cm (8 x 5.1 in). • Iconic musical motif in the painting of Romanticism and Biedermeier • Spitzweg was inspired by theater and opera; the beginning of Rossini"s "The Barber of Seville" inspired his imagination to create a series of nocturnal serenades • A particularly atmospheric version of the serenade, with a dramaturgically refined lighting . We are grateful to Mr Detlef Rosenberger, who examined the original work, for his kind support in cataloging this lot.
