More about this artwork

"Blick auf Wien aus der Ballonhöhe von 3000m über der Schönbrunner Gloriette" by Carl Moll offers a stunning aerial perspective of Vienna from the unique vantage point of 3000 meters above the iconic Schönbrunn Gloriette, painted in 1898. This remarkable composition blends finely detailed urban planning with the mood of an expansive, almost endless horizon. The artist brings Vienna's intricate cityscape to life under a luminous, subdued sky that seemingly stretches beyond the edges of the canvas.Prominently featured in the foreground is an eagle in mid-flight, symbolizing perhaps the freedom and soaring heights from which the scene is depicted. This majestic bird adds a dynamic element to the serene expanse of the city below. The painting encapsulates Vienna's historical and architectural grandeur, illustrating landmarks and the era’s urban layout with meticulous precision.Through this piece, Moll not only showcases his mastery in capturing landscape and skyscapes but also evokes a sense of wonder at the advanced perspective of the city.
