Gemälde, Zeichnungen u. Grafiken 16. bis 19. Jhd. – Enkel des gleichnamigen Christian Georg Schütz, verstarb Schütz d. J. bereits mit 20 Jahren und hinterließ nur ein kleines Oeuvre. Er galt als überaus talentiert. - Gezeigt wird das Grabmal der Caecilia Metella, ein imposantes Grabmonument an der Via Appia Antica in Rom vor einer Kulisse mit Figurenstaffage. Das Grabmal wurde seinerzeit von einigen Künstlern rezipiert, so stellte es beispielsweise Johann Heinrich Wilhelm Tischbein im Hintergrund seines Gemäldes "Goethe in der Campagna" dar. - Papierbedingt zart gebräunt (tls. etw. unregelmäßig), technikbedingt leicht gewellt, im Blattrand mit einigen Einrissen, diese teils hinterlegt bzw. restauriert, verso mit umlaufender Hinterlegung sowie etw. fleckig. Insgesamt gut. Zarte und detailliert ausgearbeitete Aquarellstudie des Künstlers.
