T. WEBER (1813-1875), Mountain road in Alpen, Pencil Therese Weber (1813 Nymphenburg - 1875 Munich): Mountain road in the Alpine region, study of a baroque fountain, , Pencil Technique: Pencil on Paper Date: Description: Impressive sketch sheet from the top of a mountain pass with a view of a town in the valley. A sketch of a baroque fountain with fish figures is glued on at the top right. Delicate architectural sketches on the verso. Presumably created while travelling in the Alpine region, South Tyrol, Tyrol, Austria or Switzerland. Therese Weber owed her training as an artist to some of the most renowned artists of her time, Karl Rottmann, Christian Morgenstern and Albrecht Adam, to the encouragement of her uncle General Freiherr von Weber. After the death of her father, he took Therese in and recognised the girl's talent and inclination. The artist trained in landscape and animal painting and studied modern languages, history and literature. She sketched and painted nature on numerous trips to Alsace, Lorraine and the Bavarian Inn Valley. During a trip to Lake Tegernsee, she met the botanist August Max Einsele, who inspired her to make accurate drawings of the plant world and to create a picturesque herbarium. Therese Weber excelled as a plant painter and published several collected works on local flora, especially of the Alpine countries. She also used the studies herself to decorate fans. In later life, the artist also travelled frequently, accompanied by an adopted orphan. She travelled to Italy, France and Switzerland and took part in social life. At the age of 62, she succumbed to diphtheria and died on 30 December 1875.
