Alpine Landscape Oil Painting with Tyrolian Mountain Village
Located in Berghuelen, DE
Alpine Landscape Oil Painting with Tyrolian Mountain Village A large vintage oil painting depicting an Alpine landscape with Tyrolian mountain village. Painted on cardboard with pastell colors. Framed with antique decorative gilded frame. On the left base signed by the artist "K. Votteler". Painted in the area of Tyrol or south Germany, early 20th century. A high quality antique oil painting which will highlight your Alpine cabin wall decoration. The Biedermeier period runs parallel to the Romantic period and both are characterized by similar features. Domesticity, closeness to nature, folksiness and need for harmony are buzzwords of this time. The focus is on the simple, the conservative and the tried and tested. There is little experimentation and more observation and enjoyment. The art style is kept very realistic and shows great similarity to photography. Domestic idyllic representations, beautiful landscape and impressive portraits are the most popular topics for oil paintings...

The frame is not terribly old, and is constructed from splatter-painted boards...
