Description

Bei vorliegender Zeichnung handelt es sich wohl um Entwurfszeichnungen für zwei ephemere Architekturen zu einem Passionsspiel. Zur rechten Darstellung befindet sich eine zweite, nahezu identische, Gumpp zugeschriebene Fassung in der Graphischen Sammlung München (Inv. Nr. 32.101, vgl. M. Krapf, Der Baumeister Gumpp, Wien/München 1979, Abb. 53). Im Landesmuseum Ferdinandeum Innsbruck findet sich darüber hinaus eine weitere Version, die Elemente aus unseren beiden Blättern verbindet (Inv. Nr. T. 282, vgl. Kat. J. Strasser, Melchior Steidl (1657-1727), Die Zeichnungen, Salzburg 1999, S. 13). – Papier leicht nachgedunkelt und gering braunfleckig, ansonsten gut.
