“Milking Time” (1906) Landscape Painting of Cows by Albert Reibmayr (Austrian)
-
Description
A fine work depicting a farmer's wife milking the cows at dusk as the evening sky turns golden and shadows grow long. Executed in oil on canvas, the work is housed in a somewhat later carved giltwood frame. With a touch of impressionism in the details, Reibmayr honors technical exactness with a thoughtful approach to anatomy and proportions. Best known perhaps for his paintings of horses, this is a sensitive work that exudes a peacefulness in the light of hard work, the nostalgia of quietude and simplicity imbue the work with a certain romanticism.
Beautifully restored and an exquisite presentation, this is a fine acquisition from an artist found very infrequently on the open market.
