C. W. Eckersberg (b. Blåkrog near Aabenraa 1783, d. Copenhagen 1853)
The cottage at the spring (Kildehytten) in the garden at Sanderumgaard, Funen. 1806. Unsigned. Inscribed “S” for Sanderumgaard and “Kildehytten”. Drawing ink and wash on paper. Visible size 22×27.5 cm.
The drawing is a study for a painting dated 1806 (Emil Hannover no. 17) belonging to Lord-in-Waiting (kammerherre) Erik Vind, Sanderumgaard.
In his book “Maleren C. W. Eckersberg”, 1898, Emil Hannover writes the following about the writer Oluf Olufsen Bagge's (1780–1836) and Eckersberg's visit to Sanderumgaard in the summer of 1806 (in Danish): “... and while Bagge was inspired to his ”Summer evenings at Sanderumgaard“, which he himself called ”An experiment in the art of poetry on the rural lyre“, Eckersberg made drafts, after which he later painted a series of pictures.” (p. 19).
Sanderumgaard's garden was both in Eckersberg's time and again today one of the most beautiful examples of the romantic English garden in Denmark.
Condition Report:The paper has turned slightly brown. Minor discolourations. A few minimal areas with superficial paperloss. Examined in frame.
