Title |
Figurativ Column of the choir stalls of St. Urban |
|||||||||||||
Description |
The column forms of the Renaissance are continued in a mannerist style. They are built up by organic and plant forms of a naturalistic kind. The division into base, shaft and capital is hardly noticeable. Column with tulip-like flower calyxes, herbaceous acanthus leaves, flower and fruit clusters and the Bust of a Bearded Man. What gives the St. Urban choir stalls their strange note is their luxuriant richness, the figurative-vegetable columns and their courtly perfection of style. There is nothing parallel to it in Swiss Baroque sculpture, in the ecclesiastical as well as in the secular sphere. |

Object history |
In 1853, the government of the Canton of Lucerne sold the choir stalls to the St. Gallen banker James Meyer. The buyer exhibited part of the stalls in the vestibule of the Hotel Drei Könige in Basel, where they were to come under the eyes of as many financially strong foreigners as possible. As early as 1854, the Irishman Stephen Ram actually acquired the entire set of stalls, which he sold to the Earl of Kinnoull at the beginning of the 1860s. Some of the carvings were placed in his Dupplin Castle in Perthshire, Scotland. In 1890, the first director of the Swiss National Museum and English consul, Heinrich Angst, learned of the whereabouts of the choir stalls and initiated negotiations to acquire them back for the National Museum. After several negotiations, it was finally bought back by the Swiss Gottfried Keller Foundation in 1911. Lord Kinnoull wanted the work to return to its original destination of St. Urban. On 21 April 1911, the Federal Gottfried Keller Foundation concluded a contract with the Canton of Lucerne for the deposition and reinstallation of the stalls at their old location. With the exception of a single crown decoration, only the purely constructive substructure and uncarved parts had to be recreated. |
