More about this artwork

Marie Egner's captivating painting "The Last Mail" illustrates a serene yet poignant riverside scene, capturing the eloquent interplay of light and shadow. As dusk settles, the painting portrays a steamboat, poised to depart from the dock. The smoke billowing from its chimney merges subtly with the soft, overcast skies, enhancing the atmospheric quality of the artwork.The waters, rendered with strokes of greens and blues, reflect the faint lights that sprout along the riverbank and from the departing vessel, creating a shimmering effect that brings the scene to life. On the pier, small figures, possibly passengers and crew, add a human element to the composition, their activities suggesting the hustle of final boardings.Egner’s adept use of lighting highlights the transition between the calm of the evening and the latent activity associated with the boat’s looming journey.

Marie Egner was an Austrian painter.

Egner was born on 25 August 1850 in Bad Radkersburg, Austria. She took her first drawing lessons in Graz with Hermann von Königsbrunn, then went to Düsseldorf from 1872 to 1875, where she studied with Carl Jungheim. In 1882, she went to Vienna to live with her mother, but spent her summers at the art colony in Plankenberg Castle, near Neulengbach, where she took lessons with Emil Jakob Schindler until 1887. A study trip to England followed from 1887 to 1889. Shortly after, her first exhibition was held at the Vienna Künstlerhaus. She also exhibited in Germany and England.
