Description from the seller

A unique piece by artist Christoph Prein — UNIQUE AND ORIGINAL PAINTING — 100% HAND-PAINTED — image description and real-time certificate included!


There is no content to translate.

Title: "Meltwater"

Description
This image feels like the moment when something long held back finally gives way. As if inner ice slowly begins to melt, without hurry, without pressure. Nothing breaks abruptly—it starts to flow.

The bright, flowing surfaces carry traces of cold within them, yet between them warm colors emerge, like memories that become palpable again. They are not loud, not demanding, but they are there. Honest. Human.

"Melting Water" tells of change that happens quietly. Of the courage to let go of control and to allow feelings to find their own path. It is an image of transitions — of the gentle return to movement after a period of stillness.

Christoph Prein is an Austrian artist known for his abstract and contemporary works, created primarily with acrylic paints. Originally from St. Margarethen near Knittelfeld, Prein's pieces are often characterized by their minimalist, abstract style and are carefully crafted from high-quality materials to ensure vibrant colors and longevity. His art frequently explores themes such as identity, memory, and the exploration of human emotions, often pushing the boundaries between the visible and the invisible.

Prein's approach to art is multidimensional, combining painting with elements of sculpture and installation. This unique style has earned him recognition both in Austria and internationally, with exhibitions throughout Europe, North America, and Asia. His works often invite the viewer to reflect on the complexity of the modern world and the deeper aspects of the human experience.


For a painting measuring 160 x 110 cm, you need a stretcher frame of size
150 x 100 cm and a thickness of 2-4 cm.

You can either stretch the canvas yourself or have it stretched by an artisan or gallery professional.



This is a handcrafted original, signed and dated by the artist on the back.

High-quality, light-resistant acrylic paints were used on gallery canvas primed several times in white.

A varnish was also applied to protect the work.



This work is handmade and therefore unique!



Authenticity certificate included

When a person ventures into their innermost depths, into a sphere that rarely comes to light, into a space that is mysterious and hidden, waiting to be discovered, gently awakened, yet painfully exposed, then art is born.

Seller's Story

My name is Christoph Prein, a freelance artist from St. Margarethen near Knittelfeld. I have been painting for many years, especially acrylic painting. My abstract acrylic paintings and my classic works of art are made from high-quality materials. I only work with the finest artist acrylic and other selected products. All acrylic paintings are signed by me, dated to the year and sealed with a final varnish. I attach great importance to originality and confirm that each painting is handmade and therefore unique.
