A King And Queen In Mourning
''A King and Queen in Mourning'' is an oil on canvas painting by German artist Carl Friedrich Lessing, created in 1830, showing a royal couple mourning their daughter's death, a scene from Ludwig Uhland's poem ''Das Schloß am Meere''. Considered the masterpiece of the "romantic-elegaic soul painting" of the Düsseldorf School, it is now in the Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg, Russia. Eduard Bendemann: ''Die trauernden Juden im Exil'', 1832 Als wegweisende romantische Inszenierung von Trauer war das Gemälde ein Vorbild für den Maler Eduard Bendemann. In dessen 1832 geschaffenem Historienbild ''Die trauernden Juden im Exil'' findet sich eine ähnliche Komposition von Figuren. An Lessings Bildschöpfung knüpfte er insbesondere durch die bildbeherrschende Figur des bärtigen, starr vor sich „hinbrütenden“ Greises an. Auch reduzierte er die Handlung zugunsten einer kontemplativen Darstellung der Melancholie. Lessings Gemälde fand weite Verbreitung durch grafische Repr ...

Eremitage (Sankt Petersburg)
The Hermitage Hunting Lodge (Danish: or ) is located in Dyrehaven north of Copenhagen, Denmark. The hunting lodge was built by architect Lauritz de Thurah in Baroque style from 1734 to 1736 for Christian VI of Denmark in order to host royal banquets during royal hunts in Dyrehaven. Name Never intended for residence, the Hermitage Hunting Lodge was built as a setting for hosting royal banquets during hunts in Dyrehaven, which surrounds the building. It originally featured a hoisting apparatus able to hoist the table from the basement to the dining room, allowing the King and his guests to dine without any waiters present, or ''"en ermitage"'' (in solitude), hence the name of the castle. The apparatus was removed in the late 18th century as it was causing endless mechanical problems, and no signs of it remain. The previous castle on the site, the Hubertus chalet, had a similar apparatus and was nicknamed for the same reason. History The area surrounding the building was fence ...
