Category: Johannes Schilling

Die Skulptur-Gruppe "Der Abend" von 1861 stammt von Johannes Schilling. Dieser stellt sein herausragendes Kunsthandwerk in Form einer kräftigen Männer-Figur dar, die nach vollbrachtem Tageswerk die angenehmen Seiten des Lebens genießt: Wein, Weib, Musik und Tanz. In dezenten Farben handbemalt, ein Trinkgefäß in der Hand und eine junge Tänzerin mit Tamburin im Arm, lauscht die mit einem Lorbeerkranz geschmückte Figur aufmerksam dem Lautenspiel des zu ihren Füßen sitzenden Mädchens. Die Skulptur ist aufwendig handbemalt und zeugt von außergewöhnlichem Kunsthandwerk. Limitiert auf 10 Stück.

Timothy ★★★★★

The patina on this piece has a rich, warm glow that photographs beautifully, and the musculature on the figure feels remarkably lifelike. It anchors my mantelpiece perfectly, exactly the contemplative end-of-day mood I wanted.

Sebastian O. ★★★★★

The way the figure’s weight shifts onto one leg, with the scythe resting against his shoulder, gives it such a natural sense of exhaustion after a long day. Even at 36 cm tall, the detail in the folds of his tunic and the expression on his face feels monumental. It’s a real conversation piece for my

Andrew K. ★★★★★

The muscle definition in the arms is so finely carved you can almost see the tension of a day's labor. It's a powerful piece that captures that moment of quiet release beautifully.
