Karl Hauptmann (1880 Freiburg - 1947 Todtnau) Sunny scene from the snow-covered Black Forest An atmospheric, finely nuanced winter landscape with snow-covered farmhouses set against the densely wooded, gently rolling hills of the Black Forest. Hauptmann, who trained in Nuremberg and Munich, captures the landscape charm of his homeland with a special depth of atmosphere in his masterly treatment of light and colour. His winter views of the Black Forest in particular quickly found their circle of collectors and made him widely known. Oil on canvas; signed a.; 69.3 cm x 89 cm. Frame. Oil on canvas. Signed.
