W.H.F.L. Langschmidt (aktief Suid-Afrika, c. 1850) W.H.F.L. Langschmidt (active c. 1850, South Africa) W.H.F.L. Langschmidt (actief Zuid-Africa, ca. 1850. Wilhelm Heinrich Franz Langschmidt 1805-1866 Canteen Scene During The Frontier Wars, Hottentots Dancing and Members Of Cape Mounted Rifles and Imperial Troops Enjoying The Spectacle signed with the initials and dated 1849 47 by 61cm. There is another painting of this subject copied from F.T. l'Ons by Langschmidt in the William Fehr Collection, The Castle, Cape Town: see Frank R. Bradlow, Africana Books and Pictures, Cape Town, 1975, page 110, 111, illustrated, and William Fehr a.o., Treasures at the Castle of Good Hope, Cape Town, 1963, page 37, plate 21. The fact that this painting shows greater detail and is signed and dated would suggest that this, rather than the painting in the Fehr Collection, is the painting referred to by Bradlow as having been exhibited at the First Fine Arts Exhibition, Cape Town. http://www.invaluable.com/auction-lot/wilhelm-heinrich-franz-langschmidt-1805-1866-cant-1-c-rkl83fzbz6 See also http://www.christies.com/lotfinder/LotDetailsPrintable.aspx?intObjectID=4784267) |
