KÜCHLER, KARL GOTTHELF, 1807 Taubenheim/Lausitz - 1843 Rome - Medallion portrait of the painter Friedrich Johann Overbeck (1789 Lübeck - 1869 Rome). Silverpoint drawing. On cardboard. Inscribed "Friedr. Overbeck Roma 1837". 28,6:22,5cm. R. (814)
Card somewhat yellowed, on the reverse with an erroneous designation as a "self-portrait" of the artist. Correctly it is a drawing 'avant' or rather 'd'après' after the well-known etching by K.G. Küchler. See: Mitchell B. Frank: "Portrait Prints, 1770-1850: Friends and Family", in: The Enchanted World of German Romantic Prints 1770-1850. Philadelphia 2017, p. 190, fig. 159.
