Chandelier after a model by Karl Friedrich Schinkel
Popular :
Inspired by a model by Karl Friedrich Schinkel neoclassical German from the beginning of the 19th century original chandelier in postdam in iron and lead wood but this one in bronze.
The original chandelier, in giltwood and composite-material chandelier, the exact formula of which remains a mystery, is by Karl Friedrich Schinkel (1781 - 1841). It is composed of three-tiered crowns decorated with freizes and crystal drops. Architect, decorator and painter, Schinkel worked almost exclusively for the Royal Prussian family from 1810 to his death. In the 1810s and1820s, he represented one of the essential forces behind the transformation of Berlin into the showcase capital of Prussia. His work is dominated by neoclassicism and later by neo- Gothic romanticism. First and foremost, Schinkel was an innovator of materials and building techniques. While remaining quite traditional with its tiered crown framework, one of the components of the chandelier is a mixed resin, proof of Schinkel’s innovation in the field of material technology.
Inspiré d’un modèle de Karl Friedrich Schinkel, néoclassique allemand du début du XIXème siècle, le lustre original est à Postdam, il est en bois, fer et plomb, mais celui-ci est en bronze.
Le lustre original, en bois doré et matériau composite dont la recette reste toujours un mystère de Karl Friedrich Schinkel (1781-1841) est composé de trois couronnes graduées ornées de frises et de pendeloques de cristal. Architecte, décorateur et peintre, Schinkel travailla presque exclusivement pour la famille royale de Prusse de 1810 jusqu’à sa mort. Il est l’un des artisans essentiels de la transformation de la ville de Berlin en capitale représentative de la Prusse dans les années 1810-20. Son œuvre est marquée par le néoclassicisme, puis par un romantisme néogothisant. Schinkel reste un chercheur de matériaux et de techniques. Ainsi ce lustre, traditionnel par sa construction en couronnes étagées, est réalisé avec une sorte de résine mélangée qui montre le souci de son créateur d’utiliser des matériaux nouveaux.
