Faust in His Study,
signed and dated at lower right: Ary Scheffer 1831,
oil on canvas,
125 x 88 cm,
a 9-cm strip at upper margin probably added by the artist himself,
magnificent original 18th-century frame
Provenance: 1831 owned by the artist; private collection,
Vienna. Exhibited: 1831,
Paris Salon. A signed preliminary study for the present painting,
oil on canvas,

vol. 4,
p. 19,
no. 1702; p. 671,
fig. 1702,
with indication of provenance: La Baronne Salomon de Rothschild. Ary Scheffer settled in Paris in 1812. He was a student of P. N. Guerin and was initially influenced by his fellow students Géricault and Delacroix. For his subject matter he preferably referred to the writings of Dante,
Goethe,
Schiller,
Walter Scott,
and Byron,
as well as to the Bible and Christian legends. “His fame as ‘peintre des âmes’’’’’’’’ (painter of the souls),” Thieme-Becker writes,
“was established by the works Faust in His Study and Gretchen at the Spinning Wheel. Scheffer also became a favourite of society as a portraitist.” The reputation Ary Scheffer enjoyed in his days is reflected in the lengthy and extensive descriptions of his person and oeuvre in the leading art encyclopaedias,
Thieme-Becker and Bénezit. The composition Faust in His Study is explicitly mentioned in Thieme-Becker,
vol. 29/30.

Ary Scheffer - 'les Douleurs De La Terre Qui Se Transforment En Espérance En S'élevant Vers Le Ciel'
Original
Auction:
Christie's -
Nov 1, 2011- Amsterdam
Lot number:

Other WORKS AT AUCTIONDescription:
Ary Scheffer (Dordrecht 1795-1858 Argenteuil) 'Les douleurs de la terre qui se transforment en espérance en s'élevant vers le ciel' oil on panel 153.5 x 99 cm.
acquired directly from the artist by A.J. Lamme (1812-1900), by descent to D.A. Lamme, 1900, by descent to C.A. Lamme, 1951, thence by descent to the present owners.
This painting can be regarded as a highlight in the oeuvre of the artist, and has a remarkable background. In 1847 the Lady Chapel of the Saint-Eustache Church in Paris commissioned the work from the artist. After three years Scheffer returned the commission because of the difficulties he experienced with the complexity of the work. However he still continued working on the consignment and eventually he was so pleased with the result, that he decided to produce several other versions of this composition, such as the one in the collection of the Dordrechts Museum (inv. no. DM/s/102).
The present lot was acquired by Scheffer's nephew Ary Johannes Lamme, a forefather of the present owners.
The composition of the work is assembled by figures from various earlier works by Scheffer, making it almost a summary of the artist's repertoire. The main figure is Mary comforting the sorrows. This symbolizes a theme often found in Scheffer works; faith as consolation. In the lower part we see figures who embody the human pain, and in the upper part figures that are spiritually free and follow their happiness in the devine light.
