Description from the seller
”A the source” (original artist's title) was executed around 1900-1910 by well-renowned Austrian landscape, genre and portrait painter Oswald Grill (1878 - Vienna - 1964).
Born in Vienna, Oswald Grill worked as a freelance artist in Dachau since 1906 after studying painting with Karl Karger at the Vienna School of Applied Arts and with Carl von Marr and Alexander von Wagner at the Munich Art Academy. After his return to Vienna, Grill served as vice-president and president of the Central Association of Fine Artists in Austria from 1917 to 1938 - he became a member of the Vienna Künstlerhaus in 1908.
The painterly work of Oswald Grill, who was appointed professor in 1929, included predominantly bright and clear natural landscape paintings in a naturalistic approach, as well as portraits, which were exhibited in the Vienna Künstlerhaus and the Munich Glass Palace, among others.
From 1938 to 1944, Grill was represented with twelve landscape paintings at all major German art exhibitions in Munich.
Grill has received numerous honors, including the Golden Medal of Honor of the Republic of Austria, the Small Golden State Medal and the Golden Laurel of the Vienna Künstlerhaus.
