The Vienna Prater is a recurring motif in the art of the landscape painter Tina Blau. The intense, impressionistic colors in this work break with the convention of the time in which a brown hue predominated in paintings. The artist had studied painting in private lessons and went on to teach as a professor at the Art School for Women and Girls in Vienna from 1898. Her favorite place to work was out in the open. Blau wanted to capture the atmospheres, light, and details of nature. In 1903 the Ministry of Culture and Education acquired Krieau in the Prater for the Modern Gallery, today the Belvedere.
