Richard Earlom (1743 London - 1822 ebd.) nach Adriaen van der Werff (1659 Rotterdam - 1722 ebd.), Bathseba bringt Abishag zu David, 1779, Mezzotinto

• Technik: Mezzotinto auf Büttenpapier, montiert auf Papier


• Datierung: 1779


• Beschreibung: Abishag war im Tanach eine Frau, die König David in Jerusalem in seinen letzten Lebenswochen pflegte. Sie wird im ersten Buch der Könige als "schönes" Mädchen erwähnt. Das Medium des Mezzotinto eignet sich hervorragend für die Wiedergabe der Stofflichkeit der diversen Draperien und Vorhänge sowie die starken Hell-Dunkel-Kontraste in dieser Eindringlichkeit und Subtilität. Das 1779 entstandene Blatt reproduziert das Gemälde "Sarah bringt Hagar zu Abraham" von Adriaen van der Werff (1659-1722). Entstanden im Jahr 1696, erwarb es Sir Robert Walpole (1676-1745), Großbritanniens erster Premierminister, für seine Sammlung in Houghton Hall (Norfolk). Unter der Darstellung signiert "Vanderwerff pinxit. George Farington delint. / John Boydell excudit 1779 / Bathseba bringing Abishag to David, / Rich. Earlom sculpsit.". Darunter mit Bezeichnung und Publikationszeile "In the Cabinet at Houghton", "Published July 31. 1779 by John Boydell, Engraver in Cheapside London."

Richard Earlom (1743 London - 1822 ibid.) after Adriaen van der Werff (1659 Rotterdam - 1722 ibid.), Bathseba bringt Abishag zu David, 1779, Mezzotint

• Technique: Mezzotint on Laid paper, mounted on Paper


• Date: 1779


• Description: In the Tanakh, Abishag was a woman who cared for King David in Jerusalem during the last weeks of his life. She is mentioned in the first book of Kings as a "beautiful" girl. The medium of the mezzotint is ideal for reproducing the materiality of the various draperies and curtains as well as the strong contrasts between light and dark with such intensity and subtlety. The sheet, created in 1779, reproduces the painting "Sarah Brings Hagar to Abraham" by Adriaen van der Werff (1659-1722). Painted in 1696, it was acquired by Sir Robert Walpole (1676-1745), Britain's first Prime Minister, for his collection at Houghton Hall (Norfolk). Signed below the depiction "Vanderwerff pinxit. George Farington delint. / John Boydell excudit 1779 / Bathsheba bringing Abishag to David, / Rich. Earlom sculpsit.". Below with inscription and publication line "In the Cabinet at Houghton", "Published July 31. 1779 by John Boydell, Engraver in Cheapside London."

For international customers outside the European Union: eBay will charge an "Internet Sales Tax". As of January 1, 2020, 38 states in the US, Australia and New Zealand require the collection of sales tax. Further states and countries may be included in this procedure. In such cases, eBay collects and remits Internet Sales Tax on your behalf. In these states, the way taxable transactions are processed, is as follows: 1. In states where eBay is required to collect Internet Sales Tax from buyers, order totals sent for processing will reflect the gross order amount inclusive of tax, if your shipping location is in one of these countries. The tax rate varies from state to state. 2. Once settled, the tax amount will be automatically deducted for remittance to the applicable taxing authority. This tax is to be paid by the buyer. Each state’s legislation dictates if shipping and handling are taxable or not. In those states where eBay is collecting tax, the tax on shipping and handling will be collected where applicable.
