Baierl, Theodor Pallas Athena Riding a Lion. Mixed media on canvas, mounted on wood. 47.3 x 43 cm. Indistinctly signed “Th Baierl” on the right margin below the lion’s head. Circa 1910. Baierl studied at the Munich Academy under Carl von Marr and Franz von Stuck. He was a member of the Munich Secession. His fascination with the art of the late Middle Ages, the Quattrocento, is reflected in both his painting technique and his choice of subjects. Thanks to his mastery of Old Master techniques, Baierl was also extremely popular as a fresco painter for many years. The austere profile view of Pallas Athena riding a lion may have served as a preliminary study for a mural in a secular building, a possibility supported by the ornamental character of the undulating ground and the cube frieze along the edges of the painting. Provenance: Private collection in southern Germany. - Please request condition reports for the lots, as the condition is usually not listed in the catalog. - Please ask for condition reports for individual lots, as the condition is usually not mentioned in the catalog.
