Oil on wood15011Snow is still on the ground, but violets and primroses are already in flower. Oversized and tantalizingly close, Waldmüller depicts them in the foreground. Some have been picked by the children. One girl bashfully offers her bunch to a boy. But this painting’s main motif is neither flowers nor children, but the landscape, captured by Waldmüller using only a few hues of blue, green, and brown—colors echoed in the children’s clothes. Light, which falls evenly on the figures and the landscape from the left, does not introduce accents but evokes atmosphere, and in this approach Waldmüller was well ahead of his times. His contemporaries responded with incomprehension or even harsh criticism.Painting10604842513Orangeryimage/jpegIn CopyrightFoto: Johannes Stoll / Belvedere, Wienhttps://sammlungtest.belvedere.at/internal/media/dispatcher/91794/fullhttps://sammlungtest.belvedere.at/apis/iiif/presentation/v2/1-objects-513/manifest
