All auctions / Arts & Graphics / Eugène Glück (French, 1820-1898) for (Theodore Deck (French, 1823-1891)
1869, French, painted earthenware, both depicting hunting scenes, the black-painted wooden frames of later date, signed and dated ‘E. Gluck 1869', signed and dated ‘E. Gluck 1869', (2), 58 x 22cm including frame, Glück was associated with Deck, a fellow Alsatian, throughout his career. A painter of landscapes, historical and genre scenes, and also a lithographer, Glück exhibited at the Salon between 1847 and 1880, but went on producing for Deck until the 1890s. He favoured medieval subjects and, as here, hunting scenes, some adapted from Antonio Tempesta (1555–1630). On the present panels - depicting a boar hunt (left) and a stag hunt - the figure on horseback in the scene with a boar appears to be based on Tempesta's etching 'Acteon a propriis canibus discerpitur', 1606. Examples of Glück's work for Deck, which remains an under-researched area of the manufacturer's oeuvre, are in the collection of the Musée de Florival, Guebwiller. The museum, in Deck's birthplace, includes several works after Tempesta, such as a roundel (unpublished) with a dog, clearly based on the same source as the one in the present scene of a stag hunt. Further examples of Glück's colourful and playful scenes of medieval chivalry are in the collection of the Musées de Marseilles: see 'Théodore Deck ou l'éclat des émaux 1823–1891', Marseilles, 1994, nos. 126-135. See also Bernard Bumpus (intro.), 'Théodore Deck Céramiste', London, 2000, nos. 4-10. Glück was responsible for some, presumably larger, 'Faïence d'Art' plaques depicting hunting scenes exhibited by Deck at the 1873 Vienna Weltausstellung: see 'Art Journal', 1873, p. 281. The subjects were 'Departure for, and Return from, the Chase' and 'Boar and Stag Hunting'. Condition Report, Condition Report, Overall the panels appear to be in good order.
