CARL ROTTMANN, A PARK LANDSCAPE A PARK LANDSCAPE Signed lower right: Rottmann Includes three other early drawings by Carl Rottmann which can be dated to the time before he moved from Heidelberg to Munich: 1. "Panoramic landscape with groups of trees at the sides", pencil, 11.4 x 20.7 cm, signed, Heinrich Lempertz collection (Lugt 1337); 2. "Female figure with her head covered", pencil, 13.8 x 11.4 cm; 3. "View of a meadow surrounded by trees, with a view of a church spire in the distance", pencil, 13.8 x 21.1 cm, signed. According to Rödiger-Diruf, the latter could possibly have been made during a trip along the Rhine made by the artist with friends in 1818/19. There are barely any comparable drawings by Carl Rottmann from the time before 1821, but the artist often signed with one "n" in his early phase, so this offers a foundation for the date. The exemplary attention to detail, the composition and the aerial perspective also indicate the hand of a talented, but not yet thoroughly mature, artist. We would like to thank Dr. Rödiger-Diruf for her support.
