Carl Christian Vogel von Vogelstein

A PAIR OF PORTRAITS OF THE DRESDEN PHARMACIST FRANZ FRIEDRICH WETZEL AND HIS WIFE CHRISTIANE SOPHIA

Oil on panel. 63 x 54 cm and 61 x 52,5 cm.

Verso inscribed “Franz Friedrich / Wetzel. / zum Andenken. / für seinen Neffen u. Pathen / Herman. Vogel / gemalt von / C: Vogel. / Dresden 1827.“ bzw. „Christiane Sophia Wetzel / geb. Freiberg / geboren zu Dresden d. 11. Aug. 1775. / Carl Vogel. Pinx./ Dresden 1839.”
The format for the1827 portrait of Franz Friedrich Wetzel is likely to have been referred to in 1829 when painting his wife, Christiane Sophia. Carl Christian, since 1831 Vogel von Vogelstein, painted portraits of the in-laws of his brother, Franz Friedrich Vogel, who was married to Dorothea Christiane Wetzel. The two paintings were given to their son Hermann Vogel, the nephew of the painter, who was also a pharmacist, like his grandfather. Since then, the pair of paintings have been in the possession of the family.

Provenance

From the artist directly to his nephew Hermann Vogel, since then in family possession.
