クリスティーズさんのインスタグラム写真 - (クリスティーズInstagram)「A master of detail, Gustav Bauernfeind’s painting of the Umayyad Mosque in Damascus is both an historical record and a beautifully balanced composition.⠀ .⠀ ‘He was trying to encapsulate everything in one picture, the texture, the rituals, the light, colour and detail,’ says Arne Everwijn, our Senior Specialist in European and Orientalist Art in London.⠀ .⠀ The Mosque was badly damaged by fire three years later, making Bauernfeind’s picture a rare document of what it once looked like.⠀ .⠀ Gustav Bauernfeind (1848–1904), ‘Forecourt of the Umayyad Mosque, Damascus’, 1890. 47 ¼ x 36 ¼ in (120.8 x 92.2 cm). Estimate on request.⠀ .⠀ Orientalist Art – 29 April at Christie’s London.⠀ .⠀ #art #artwork #artist #bauernfeind #gustavbauernfeind #umayyadmosque #damascus #mosque #painting」4月10日 0時00分
