Marmon art workshop
The Marmon art workshop was a sculptor and altar building workshop based in Sigmaringen , which created works of art in the second half of the 19th and first half of the 20th century, mainly for the decoration of Catholic churches in southwest Germany and Switzerland.
history
In 1857, Franz Xaver Marmon (1832–1878) opened a workshop for church art in Hechingen . In 1858 he moved it to Sigmaringen at Gorheimer Straße 22, very close to the Gorheim monastery . When he died in 1878 at the age of 46, his widow Agatha continued to run the art workshop with the help of masters Franz Joseph Simmler , Anton Warth and A. Schädler until his sons Alfons (1873–1928) and Franz Xaver (1879–1963) took over could.
Art workshops Marmon was one of the workshops of Josef Eberle (1839-1903) in Ueberlingen (later Eberle'sche art workshops Gebr. Mezger), Peter Paul Metz (1830 to 1912) in Gebrazhofen and Franz Joseph Simmler (1846-1926) in Offenburg to the leading workshops for sacred art in southwest Germany in the second half of the 19th and early 20th centuries.
Up to 40 sculptors, joiners , stonemasons , barrel painters , gilders , engravers and others worked in the workshop .
In 1908, the brothers founded a branch in St. Gallen-St.Gallen in Switzerland by taking over the workshop of Johann Nepomuk Neumann . Georgen, which was relocated to Wil in 1917 after taking over the workshop from Carl Glauner (1865–1916) , where it existed with employee Anton Blank (1884–1971) as a co-owner under the name Marmon & Blank until 1937.
The sculptor Josef Henselmann (1898–1987) was an apprentice in the Marmon workshop in Sigmaringen from 1914 to 1916 . After the First World War, the workshop devoted itself increasingly to the restoration of sacred works of art. Alfons' son, Fidelis Marmon (1906–1987), also worked in this area.
After the death of Franz Xaver Marmon, the sculptor Ernst Lorch (* 1935) acquired the workshop.
Works
The workshop initially worked in the tradition of the Nazarenes, in particular in the neo-Gothic style , mainly for furnishing Catholic churches. The early major works include five altars for the redesign of the Freiburg Minster , created between 1869 and 1891. The commissions probably go back to the brother of Franz Xaver Marmon, the cathedral capitular and cathedral pastor Josef Marmon (1820–1885).
