Emmerich Kirall (1875-1939) - Staatsoper

A refined watercolour and ink drawing by Emmerich Kirall, capturing the Vienna State Opera in 1920 with exceptional architectural precision and atmospheric detail.
The composition combines Kirall’s characteristic linear clarity with a lively early‑20th‑century street scene, including figures and period vehicles that enhance the historical depth of the work.
The façade of the Staatsoper is rendered with remarkable attention to proportion and ornament, demonstrating the artist’s strong command of architectural subjects.
Signed and dated, this medium‑format piece represents one of Kirall’s most sought‑after motifs and is preserved in very good condition.
A rare opportunity to acquire a distinguished example of Viennese urban art from the interwar period.
