More about this artwork

Marie Egner’s painting titled "Weißenkirchen in der Wachau" vividly captures the tranquil charm of the Austrian town of Weißenkirchen in the famed Wachau Valley. Known for her exquisite handling of natural light and architectural detail, Egner showcases her skills in this serene depiction.In the foreground, a narrow, meandering pathway leads the viewer's eyes through the scene, flanked by ancient, textured buildings with rustic charm. Dominating the composition is the stately church tower, its sharp vertical lines cutting through the softer, swirling textures of the creamy sky behind. This church, with its pointed spire and sturdy structure, serves as the focal point, symbolizing the town's historic and cultural significance.The palette is predominantly earthy, punctuated by the fresh greens of sparse vegetation—a testament to Egner’s mastery in reflecting the colors of the natural world. Noticeable in the lower right is a figure, perhaps a local resident, contributing a human element that adds life and scale to the scene.Egner's brushwork is both dynamic and delicate, capturing the essence of Weißenkirchen with a poignant blend of realism and impressionistic flair.

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.
