More about this artwork

Marie Egner's painting, "Children by a Mountain Creek," captures a delightful scene of youthful exploration and natural wonder. Nestled within a lush landscape, the artwork depicts two children beside a gently flowing creek, surrounded by the vibrant and untamed growth of nature.In the foreground, the creek, vividly rendered with reflections of light and shadow, serves as a mirror to the canopy above, while small shoots of green reeds punctuate its banks, bringing bursts of life to the water's edge. The children, absorbed in their serene surroundings, appear amidst the verdant foliage, which Egner masterfully paints with a variety of greens and earth tones. The intricate play of light filtering through the leaves casts dynamic patterns and infuses the scene with a sense of depth and mystery.Egner's brushwork conveys a softness that enhances the tranquil and somewhat hazy atmosphere of the painting, encouraging the viewer to reflect on moments of childhood innocence and the simple joys found in nature’s embrace. This piece not only showcases Egner’s skill in landscape painting but also her ability to weave emotion and narrative into her compositions.

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.
