Information

Watercolour over pencil on paper. 31,2 x 42 cm (12 ¼ x 16 ½ in.). Signed lower left: F. W. Kloss. On the reverse lower right the collector's mark Lugt 873b.

Formerly collection Ernst Jürgen Otto, Celle

Variations exist in the castles at Darmstadt, Potsdam and Charlottenburg. This watercolour is likely the only version to have come relatively early into non-aristocratic ownership, namely into the collection of the lawyer Wilhelm Steffen of Wilhelmshof near Brandenburg an der Havel. See the exhibition: Berlinische Kunst aus den Jahren 1830 bis 1850. Große Berliner Kunstausstellung 1911, cat. no. 2834. Also the auction catalogue: Auktion 64: Das alte Berlin.
