Description from the seller
Claudius Schraudolph the Younger (Claudius Schraudolph d. J.) b. 1843 Munich – 1902 Eppan/South Tyrol
Caught Altar Servers
Oil on wood
Dimensions: 27 × 20 cm
With frame: 33.3 × 26.5 cm
Born into the well-known Munich artist family, Claudius Schraudolph the Younger was a pupil of his father Claudius Schraudolph the Elder and devoted himself primarily to genre scenes with a humorous touch.
The present work shows a lively scene inside a church: Two altar servers, dressed in white rochets, have been caught by the clergyman as they revel in childlike curiosity in the altar area. The finely observed facial expressions and gestures, as well as the warm color palette, give the painting a charming, lightly ironic narrative quality.
Schraudolph masterfully combines in this genre piece a meticulously detailed painterly technique with an anecdotal composition, offering a glimpse into the everyday life of his time.
Condition: good, as age would have it.
Seller's Story
Art dealing has been in our family: my grandfather was an art dealer, and my mother is an antique dealer. In 2017, I continued this tradition and founded the Antoni Art Dealership—with the goal of making high-quality European art accessible to a new audience. Since then, we have passionately dedicated ourselves to trading paintings from the 19th century to the present. Our portfolio is complemented by our own gallery for contemporary art, where we present and promote current artistic positions.
Our expertise, cross-generational experience, and a carefully curated selection make us a special address for collectors, art lovers, and the curious.
