SwissArtGallery · Documented identity
The German landscape painter Carl Morgenstern (1811–1893) is associated here with a view of Lake Como and Bellagio. Titled Blick auf den Comer See und Bellagio, this oil on canvas measures 27 × 40 cm. On the reverse of the stretcher, a handwritten note bears the inscription “Prof. Carl Morgenstern / Comer See (Bellagio)”; it is considered, with reservation, probably to be in the artist’s hand. The published provenance indicates a sale from Morgenstern’s estate at F. A. C. Prestel in Frankfurt on 9 May 1899 (lot 49), followed by a private collection in Hesse.
This profile brings together identity references for Carl Morgenstern and paintings, drawings and works on paper documented in auction catalogues.
