Description:
Circa 1550 or later
Etching on laid paper
32.5x21.2 cm, sheet size
Provenance
The Eberhard W. Kornfeld Collection, Bern, Lugt 913b
Comments
The sheet bears an old attribution to Jost Ammann, which is stylistically not far-fetched, but has not found its way into more recent literature on the artist. This may also be due to the rarity of the etching. We were only able to find it in the "Digitaler Portraitindex druckgraphischer Bildnisse der Frühen Neuzeit" in a copy in the manuscript department of the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin (inv. no. Portr. Slg / Georgr. gzgr. / Münster, Sebastian, no. 7).
A comparable portrait print of Münster (1488-1552) at the age of 60 is thus based on a likeness created around 1548.
Sebastian Münster
Um 1550 oder später
Radierung auf Bütten
32,5x21,2 cm, Blattgrösse
Provenienz
Slg. Eberhard W. Kornfeld, Bern, Lugt 913b
Erläuterungen
Das Blatt trägt eine alte Zuschreibung an Jost Ammann, was stilistisch nicht ganz abwegig ist, jedoch in der neueren Literatur zum Künstler keinen Eingang gefunden hat. Das kann allerdings auch an der Seltenheit der Radierung liegen. Wir konnten sie lediglich im "Digitalen Portraitindex druckgraphischer Bildnisse der Frühen Neuzeit" in einem Exemplar in der Handschriftenabteilung der Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin nachweisen (Inv. Nr. Portr. Slg / Georgr. gzgr. / Münster, Sebastian, Nr. 7).
Eine vergleichbare Bildnisgraphik Münster (1488–1552) im Alter von 60 Jahren, beruht also auf einem um 1548 entstandenen Konterfei.
