3/internal/media/dispatcher/51941/fullDachstein1904[Emil Orlik]Emil OrlikOil on canvasDas Bild zeigt eine Waldlandschaft des Salzkammerguts mit dem Dachsteingebirge. Eine vergleichbare Ansicht des Dachsteins zeigt zum Beispiel Ferdinand Georg Waldmüllers "Ansicht des Dachsteins mit dem Hallstätter See von der Hütteneckalpe bei Ischl" im Wien Museum. Orlik stellt den dunklen, runden Granitblöcken im Vordergrund die lichten Formen des Gebirgskamms gegenüber. Das runde, verwitterte und bemoste Granitgestein erscheinen als elementarer Kontrast zu den hellen, kristallinen Formen des schneebedeckten Hochgebirges. — [Markus Fellinger, 03/2013]Paintinghttps://sammlungtest.belvedere.at/objects/29110/rdf/internal/media/dispatcher/4761/fullEmotion1900[Ferdinand Hodler]Ferdinand HodlerOil on canvas Barefoot, wearing a pale blue dress, a young woman stands gracefully in the middle of a landscape. She has raised her hands to her chest like a dancer while averting her face. The Swiss painter Ferdinand Hodler depicted his wife Berthe in this work. In an earlier presentation it was titled „Woman in a Flowery Meadow“. The later title „Emotion“ transformed the figure into the allegorical embodiment of a feeling. Hodler was an important exponent of Jugendstil and was also a member of the Vienna Secession. Many of his works — including this one — were shown at the 19th Secession exhibition in 1904. There it was acquired by the collector Carl Reininghaus, who sold the painting to what is now the Belvedere in 1918.Paintinghttps://sammlungtest.belvedere.at/objects/978/rdf/internal/media/dispatcher/5363/fullEarly Springc. 1900[Akseli Gallen-Kallela]Akseli Gallen-KallelaOil on canvasAn image of spring as a symbol of change and renewal. Inspired by the latest artistic developments in cities such as Paris, Berlin, and Vienna, the Finnish artist Akseli Gallen-Kallela created pictures of nature and depicted the myths of his homeland. He achieved his international breakthrough at the Paris Exposition Universelle in 1900; the following year he exhibited at the Vienna Secession. Like the founders of the Secession, he, too, was looking for new forms of expression. By means of stylized shapes and bold colors, in his painting Spring he created a symbol of new beginnings. The first warm rays of sunshine melt the snow and spread positive energy. Paintinghttps://sammlungtest.belvedere.at/objects/6144/rdf
