A leaded glass window featuring personifications of professions, signed Karl Muggly,
Four window parts with oak wood frame, each with eight glass painted fields, with abstract vegetation ornamentation painted in colour, six personifications of craftsmen painted in colour, the ground covered with a luminous colour, which is overlaid with lot colours and decorated with etchings, partially covered with valuable silver stain for further refinement, models completed carefully with stippled lot casing, each field leaded and inserted into wooden frames with glazing beads, altogether 230 x 160 cm, two window parts 60 x 160 cm each, two window parts 55 x 160 cm each, very good stable condition, very few glass parts have been glued in with precise positioning, Karl Muggly, Bielefeld around 1920 (Ru)>
Karl Muggly was born as the son of a master glass painter in Munich in 1884. Educated as a glass painter, arts training in Wiesbaden with a stipend to visit the Dresden Kunstakademie. He moved to Bielefeld, was invited to teach at the Handwerker- und Kunstgewerbeschule, where he would later be a professor. In 1910, he participated in the design of the head office for the Brussels world fair; he won the gold medal. Participated in the Werkbundausstellung in Cologne in 1914. His works include glass painting as well as other painting techniques, such as ceramics works, oil and watercolour painting as well as mural painting. He was closely connected to and friends with Ernst Barlach. All of Muggly's works betray his roots in Jugendstil and glass painting, but are abstract and employ an intense use of colour and decided form design. Karl Muggly died in 1957.
