About the Item

Biedermeier Painting of an European Alpine Village late 19th Century An antique Victorian landscape painting framed in a silver-colored frame. Painted in oil on wood by the German painter Josef Henfling (1877-1950) in the late 19th century. It depicts a quaint European village with rustic yellow-toned buildings nestled in the alpine foothills. A stone tower is seen in the background, situated on a rise, with distant mountains under a soft sky. The artist's signature is placed on the left edge. A great painting from the second half of the 19th century. 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 until the end of the 19th century. artfour is an owner-managed trading company dealing in Black Forest woodcarvings, antler furniture and an impressive variety of unique decorative items.
