Description: From the hand of Theodor Hosemann, German graphic artist, painter, draughtsman, illustrator and caricaturist. Along with Adolf Menzel he is regarded as the most important lithographer in the early days of this technique in Berlin. Titled in lead on the original passepartout below the image: "Die Kremserpartie"; dated and monogrammed in the lower centre of the image: "TH 37". In the centre of the depiction is the titular "Kremser", a spacious covered wagon, with ladies dressed in Sunday best inside. In front of the Kremser, two visibly inebriated gentlemen in top hats are talking. The depiction is artfully framed with vine leaves and tendrils.From the collaboration with Adolf Glaßbrenner, the popular poet in the revolutionary pre-March, numerous humorous-satirical sheets were created. Theodor Hosemann saw the Berliners with their typical peculiarities: the indomitable lust for life, the saucy brashness, the critical wit; he was one of the first Berlin humour artists. With love, understanding and a fine sense of humour, Hosemann captured the life of the Berlin people.About the artist: Theodor Hosemann grew up as the son of a Prussian officer in various places, from 1816 in Düsseldorf. There he coloured lithographs in the lithographic institute "Arnz und Winckelmann" from 1819, completed an apprenticeship there as a draughtsman and lithographer and at the same time attended drawing lessons with Lambert Cornelius at the primary schools. In 1822 he got a permanent position as a draughtsman at the Lithographische Anstalt and at the same time studied at the Kunstakademie, where he was one of the few who took over from Wilhelm Schadow after he took up his post in 1826. In 1828 Winckelmann took Hosemann with him to Berlin; there he was given a permanent position in Winckelmann's newly founded publishing house. He was close to the Berlin "Rütli" in the 1850s, and from 1857 to 1860 was co-editor of all four volumes of the association-related yearbook "Argo. Album für Kunst und Dichtung" (Breslau). In the "Argo" Hosemann published several pictures (steel engraved plates). Hosemann mainly illustrated children's and youth literature (e.g. fairy tales and fables) and became so famous with them that he soon worked for different publishers and could give up his permanent position at Winckelmann. In addition to humorous drawings for the Bunte Hefte published by George Gropius, he worked with the critical publicist and writer Adolf Glaßbrenner, for whose series "Berlin wie es ist - und trinkt" (Berlin as it is - and drinks), published in 32 issues, he provided the illustrations of the same name. In 1857 he was appointed professor at the Berlin Academy, in 1860 member of the academy and in 1866 teacher at the drawing school attached to the academy. Among his pupils was Heinrich Zille.
