Description:
AN ORIGINAL 1940's LANDSCAPE OIL PAINTING OF BAD WIESSEE IN GERMANY'S BAVARIAN ALPS A magnificent original mountain landscape painting in the European classical realism style, signed, titled, and dated at lower left by the artist, 'Albert Tzerr, Bad Wiessee, 1948'. A country road leads the viewer's eye toward the main building of the spa. The Bavarian Alps provide the main focal point of the painting in the distance, set against a cloud-filled sky. Composition is beautifully done, and the realistic color palette combine to create a spectacular classical painting.
Bad Wiessee is a spa town on Lake Tegernsee, Bavaria, Germany. The name Bad stands for "spa" or "baths", while Wiessee derives from "West See", meaning "western part of the lake". Bad Wiessee is known for its healing sulfur-fountain. Because of its quiet and its situation at the north side of the Alps many people spend their holidays there. Bad Wiessee is also notorious as the scene of the key events within the Night of the Long Knives, June 30, 1934, when Hitler and the SS purged the leadership of the SA, many of whom were staying at the resort.
As well as outpatient spa facilities, Bad Wiessee and the Tegernsee Valley now also have a wide range of clinics and sanatoriums offering in-patient treatments. Dimensions are 27.75" wide by 24.1" high, and condition is excellent for its age. The painting is bordered by a solid silvered and routered hardwood frame, which shows imperfections and blemishes due to age.
