Carl Benjamin Thielemann

View of the Dresden Elbe front with the Augustus Bridge from the Neustadt district

Gouache on paper. 53 x 81 cm.
Framed under glass.
Dated on the verso: 1807.

The following inscription can be read on the reverse of this gouache with the magnificent ‘Canaletto view’ of Dresden: ‘No: / Prospect of Dresden, together with the Elbe bridge and the gardens of / Neustadt in the foreground, the view is / in Neustadt am Kohlmarkte in the house No. 14 from the main building / 1807.’

The view largely corresponds to the centre image of a three-part panorama of the Augustinian Bridge and the banks of Neustadt, which is in the possession of the Dresden City Museum and is also attributed to Carl Benjamin Thielemann.
