More about this artwork

Marie Egner’s painting titled "Altes Gemäuer" captures the nostalgic beauty of an aged, weathered building, nestled in a serene, natural landscape. The heart of the composition is an old stone structure that shows the effects of time, with rustic walls and a delicately balanced structure that adds a sense of historical depth to the scene. The building, with its time-worn stones and patches of wall rendered to expose underlying textures, evokes a rich past that viewers can sense and almost touch.The surrounding nature complements this focal point perfectly. Egner has skillfully depicted an array of lush vegetation, from the foreground’s vibrant greenery to the trees dappling the edges with hues of autumn. The artist employs a soft, diffused light that seems to filter through the leaves, enhancing the tranquil and slightly melancholic mood of the setting.The interplay of the organic—with the wild, untamed growth of plants—and the manmade—with the crumbling yet still dignified building—creates a harmonic and inviting scene that speaks to the resilience and beauty of the untouched corners of our world.

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.
