More about this artwork
"Ein Strauss mit Wildrosen" (A Bouquet with Wild Roses), painted by Marie Egner around 1911-1912, offers a delightful glimpse into the tranquil essence of nature through the lens of Austrian landscape and flower painting.The artwork breathes a delicate composition of wild roses, depicted with a soft, impressionistic touch. In the painting, the wild roses, with their gentle white and cream petals, are nestled amidst an array of lush green foliage, interspersed with hints of earthy tones and subtle pops of red and orange berries. This intricate arrangement rests on what appears to be a muted backdrop of rustic woods and shadows, suggesting a peaceful, natural setting.Egner's masterful use of watercolors lends a light and airy quality to the scene, allowing the viewer to almost feel the breeze and smell the fresh, earthy scents of the wild outdoors. The ephemeral beauty of the wild roses is enhanced by the painting's soft color palette and the fine detail used to render the plants and their surroundings.This painting is not just a visual treat; it is a testimony to Egner's ability to capture the fleeting beauty of nature's flora with grace and subtlety.

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.
