Chapel in the high mountains
Painted in contrasting colours and a dynamic, strongly impasto style, depicting a sunlit, stone chapel between towering, dark rock massifs in the Tyrolean lowlands. Characteristic, small-format impression from Mulley's Kufstein creative period (1918-1934), in which he developed an individual, flat painting style for his Alpine landscapes, executed in impasto spatula technique, in which he mainly staged old mountain farms and chapels without staffages of people in an exciting way and expressed the sublimity of the high mountain world. In this way he modernised mountain painting in the 20th century. Oil/cardboard. Two artist's stamps verso with location Kufstein. 10 cm x 12 cm. Frame.
Attributed to Oskar Mulley (1891 - 1949). Oil on cardboard. Artist's stamp with location Kufstein on the reverse (twice).
