Wilhelm Kuhnert (1865 Opole - 1926 Flims)
'Sultan Solero', 1905

Oil on canvas, drawn on cardboard. 62.8 x 47.8 cm (box), 75.0 x 60.0 cm (frame). Inscribed at the top right: Sultan Solerao, signed at the bottom right: Wilh. Kuhnert, dated: 24.9.(19)05 and inscribed: Mahenge (oil). Typographically inscribed on an adhesive label on the verso: Wilhelm Kuhnert Werkverzeichnis 07 01 2314 VI. Framed. The motif probably arose on Kuhnert's second expedition to East Africa, when he got caught up in the Maji Maji uprising.

With an expertise from Ms. Dr. Angelika Grettmann-Werner from 2024, for whom we would like to thank her very much.
