English: Baron Munchhausen
Record number: 23061608 Artist: Herrfurth, Oskar (German, 1862-1934) Item caption, front: Münchhausen / O. Herrfurth, pinx. Item caption/descriptive text, back: Münchhausens Abenteuer. 10. Während seiner türkischen Gefangenschaft hatte Münchhausen die Bienen pflegen. Die Bären trachteten aber nach dem Honig. Er bestrich deshalb die Deichsel eines Wagens mit Honig. In der Nacht kam ein Bär und fing an zu lecken, bis die ganze Deichsel durch Schlund, Magen und Bauch ging. Als sie hinten herausschaute, steckte Münchhausen einen großen Nagel durch die Stange und hatte den Bären gefangen. Der Großsultan mußte sich darüber fast zu Tode lachen. = Baron Münchhausen's Adventures. 10. During his Turkish captivity, Münchhausen had to tend the beehives. But bears wanted to get the honey. Münchhausen smeared the drawbar of a wagon with honey. During the night a bear came and started licking, not stopping until the entire shaft went through its gullet, stomach and abdomen. As it emerged from the bear's rump, Munchausen stuck a large nail through the pole and thereby caught the bear. The Grand Sultan almost laughed himself to death at the sight. Uniform title: Dimensions: 140 x 89 mm. Date: ca. mid-1920s or earlier Nationality: German Publisher: Uvachrom Gesellschaft für Farbenphotographie m.b.H., München [Munich]-Stuttgart, [Germany] Series: Serie 324 Nr. 4921 Medium: Uvachrom color print from original watercolor painting Interpretive notes: Hoping to trap a bear that threatens his beehives, Münchhausen smears a wagon tongue with honey. When the greedy bear swallows the shaft and it emerges from his rear end, Münchhausen traps the bear by inserting a large nail in the shaft so that it cannot be withdrawn. The Sultan is amused at the sight. Subject headings: Bears; Palaces; Wagons Credit: The Jack Zipes Historic Fairy Tale Postcard Collection/Minneapolis College of Art and Design |
