Date: Before 1872. Technique: Pencil on beige paper. Measurement: 20 x 25.5cm. Frame: Cloth cover. Provenance: Private ownership, Germany. The present sketchbook by Karl Buchholz contains numerous preparatory studies for paintings by the artist. They show areas familiar to the artist, around Oberweimar (Thuringia), where Buchholz died in 1889. It is difficult to date the sketches precisely, but they include one for the famous painting ”Frühling auf dem Dorf” from around 1872 in the Alte Nationalgalerie in Berlin (inv. no. A I 944), which could be a terminus ante quem for the execution of the sketches.
