Mischtechnik: Pappkorpus mit einfacher, von Hand zu führender und arretierbarer Aufklappvorrichtung auf der Rückseite, mit appliziertem, handbemaltem und mit kleinen metallischen Partikeln versehenen Kreppapier, beidseitig lithographisch bedruckte Zuschnitte für Hals, Kopf und Fußpartie, sowie wabenförmig mehrlagigem Chinapapier. Abmessung in geöffnetem Zustand ca. H 53 x B 44 cm. Die ursprüngliche Verwendung wohl als Staffagerequisiten für Marionetten- und Puppentheater. Der auch mit einer Hand zu bedienende Öffnungsmechanismus ermöglichte eine für diese Bühnen effiziente Möglichkeit, den Überraschungseffekt eines sich im Handumdrehen aufschlagenden Pfauenrades spektakulär zu nutzen, eine Technik, die in Zeiten des zu Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts blühenden Orientalismus auf Volksmärkten und Kleinbühnen sicherlich geschätzt wurde. - Mit wenigen und unscheinbaren Randläsuren, die metallischen Partikel tls. etw. oxidiert. Insgesamt außergewöhnlich gut erhaltene Beispiele für frühe Pop-up-Objekte sowie ausgesprochen dekorativ. Theatre - Pair of peacocks. Mixed media: cardboard base with simple, hand-operated and lockable folding device on the back, with applied, hand-painted crepe paper with small metallic particles, cutouts for neck, head and foot sections lithographically printed on both sides, multi-layered China paper. - The original use probably as staffage props for marionette and puppet theaters. The opening mechanism, which can also be operated with one hand, made it possible for these stages to use the surprise effect of a peacock's wheel in the blink of an eye in a spectacular way, a technique that was certainly appreciated at folk markets and small stages in times of orientalism, which was flourishing at the beginning of the 20th century. - With few and inconspicuous marginal defects, the metallic particles partly somewhat oxidized. Altogether very well-preserved examples of early pop-up objects as well as being highly decorative. Dieses Werk ist regelbesteuert.
