Weber's Art: The Forest Path with a Temple

(1872 Vienna - 1949 ibid.) A forest path with a side chapel, a peasant woman and a goat in a sunny meadow. This early work by Weber captures the play of light, a characteristic feature of his art.

His oeuvre includes Austrian and Italian landscape motifs, including those from the Wachau region. Watercolor and gouache on paper, laid down on cardboard. Signed and dated 1899. Dimensions: 39.5 cm x 26 cm. Framed.
