Description: | Signed: yes Description: The Russell-Cotes painting Salmon Fishing in the Tyrol by Carl Hasch (1834-1897) is a particularly fine example of the artist's work. While the subject and composition, showing a reflective surface of water in the foreground, trees in the middle ground and a mountain range in the distance, are typical, the artist's decision to depict a night scene is unusual. In this work Hasch reveals a careful observation of nature. The reflected lights on the lake in the foreground and the silvery tone of the moonlit sky silhouetting the monochrome mountains in the background are particularly successful and lend the scene a quality of romantic' drama that would have appealed to the artist's many collectors. | Subjects: | landscape (Tyrol); figure | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Hasch, Carl (German artist, 1834-1897) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8469... | Go to resource |
