This
relatively unknown artist was an Austrian.
Most of his work apparently consists of paintings dealing with fairy
tales and mediaeval history – not so appealing to me as this quiet and
fascinating painting.
This
painting dates from 1858 and was painted for the artist himself rather than
with any intention of selling or showing the painting to the public.
It is a
lovely representation of the quiet early morning hours when you greet the day
after rising from your bed.
The
original of this painting is in a gallery in Munich.
What a great photo.

ReplyDeleteI hadn't heard about this artist before but I certainly like the painting. It looks so intimate.
