Lot No. 86


A table, Oswald Haerdtl (attributed to),


Vienna c. 1939, reduced wooden frame on four legs, with the table receiving its classic form from the relatively highly positioned stretchers, height approx. 75 cm, length approx. 200 cm, depth approx. 100 cm. (MHA)

The present object is not documented in literature, but a suite of furniture from 1938 for the apartment of Rosemarie Meyer registered in the catalogue raisonné under No. WV 145 shows strong similarities. Moreover, a table from the apartment of the architect Oswald Haertl (1937) featuring this type of design is reproduced on page 68 in the 1978 exhibition catalogue of the Vienna University of Applied Arts.

Cf. Lit.:
Oswald Haerdtl 1899–1959, Hochschule für angewandte Kunst, Vienna 1978, pp. 66ff.; Adolph Stiller, Oswald Haerdtl – Architekt und Design, Vienna 2000, p. 235.

Provenance:
Formerly part of the original furnishings of Mautner Markhof’s Stadlau malt factory. The factory was fundamentally refurbished and extended in 1939.
