Friedrich von Amerling. Werkverzeichnis der Gemälde
Produktbeschreibung
Portrait and genre painting in the 19th century
Friedrich von Amerling (1803-1887) was one of Vienna's most important portraitists. His oeuvre reads like a who's who of the 19th century. He received commissions from the Habsburg court, the Austrian nobility, and the haute bourgeoisie, because no other portraitist could blend realism and idealism so aptly. In addition, throughout his life Amerling studied his own appearance in a series of self-portraits and portrayed many of his fellow artists. He became particularly popular for his depictions of young women, and stories circulated about little clues inserted into their costumes.
Amerling's approximately 1,200 paintings are collected here for the first time in an illustrated catalog raisonné. Several essays discuss the painter's outstanding artistic talent, his life, his models, his collection, and his residence.
