Cyrenius initially focused on landscape painting but later specialized in enamel. In 1906 she exhibited several works at Galerie Miethke as part of the artists’ group Die Jungen and received favorable reviews. Later, she became a member of the Association of Austrian Women Artists, founded in 1910. Her view of the harbor of Malcesine on Lake Garda was likely created during a oneyear study trip to Italy, where she visited cities such as Venice, Florence, Rome, and Naples, in 1906–07. Stylistically, the painting is comparable to works by artists around 1900 associated with Gustav Klimt and Cyrenius’s teacher, Alfred Roller.Paintinghttps://sammlungtest.belvedere.at/objects/93652/rdf
