Description from the seller

Gustav Rockholtz (1869–1938) — « Sanssouci » — Architectural scene, signed work

Figurative work representing an architectural scene with historical character, featuring a monumental construction, columns, arches, lush vegetation, and a figure in the foreground.

The inscription “Sanssouci” visible on the piece evokes the famous palace and landscape ensemble of Potsdam, in Germany. The subject is distinguished by its ancient atmosphere, patinated tones, and the richness of architectural details.

The work presents a signature that appears to read “G. Rockholtz,” alluding to the German painter Gustav Rockholtz (1869–1938). This attribution remains to be confirmed by specialized examination; no certificate of authenticity is currently provided.

The technique has not been formally identified. The surface appearance suggests a work on paper, possibly executed in watercolor, gouache, or a mixed technique. The exact support will need to be confirmed after examination.

The painting is presented in a decorative frame with matting and glazing. The reverse includes a closing panel and fixing elements. The work is sold with its frame.
