| This Oil on Canvas "Amalfi Coast", Alois Arnegger , (Austrian, 1879 - 1967), is in Excellent Condition. Alois Arnegger was born in 1879 in Vienna. He studied at the Academie des Beaux-Arts in Vienna under the instruction of Robert Russ (1867-1922) and August Eisenmenger (1830-1907). It was here he developed his skills as a portrait and landscape painter. At the beginning of his career he was known for his painting of Austrian landscape scenes. However, he traveled to Italy in the 1920s and became enamored by the Mediterranean coast. This motivated him to paint many scenes from the Mediterranean landscapes and coastlines - and brilliant and vibrant views of Capri, San Remo and Naples. The constant change in seasonal and climatic variations of the rural regions intrigued Arnegger, who painted the same subjects over and over in different weather and conditions. Later in his life, Arnegger returned to his homeland of Austria where he continued to paint landscapes and Alpine scenes. He died in his hometown of Vienna. Arnegger's works have sold in galleries around the world including New York, Stuttgart, Vienna, Amsterdam, Paris, Stockholm, Munich and Chicago. His son Gottfried Arnegger was also a painter. Arnegger's mastering of the romantic and mesmerizing Italian garden along the Amalfi Coast in Italy is reflective of his colorful and lively style. The vibrancy of the colors are painted with soft brushstrokes showing tonal values throughout the landscape. The rendering of architecture is accurate in proportion and balanced by the heavy foliage surrounding the garden area. The background's mountainous terrain is small in scale compared to the natural grandeur of the area. Arnegger has placed a fanciful combination of colors in the garden set against the beautiful blue coastline.
