Anton Altmann the Younger (1808, Vienna – 1871, ibid.) Summer Landscape with Two Boys Flying a Kite A late Biedermeier landscape with an atmospheric mood, featuring a subtly rendered sky and light; the children stand at the top of a hill from which a spring flows; in the background is a large monastery complex. Born into a family of painters and orphaned at the age of 10, Anton Altmann had to earn his living in other ways for a long time after completing his studies at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna, until he was able to complete and exhibit his first oil painting in 1838. The following year, Archduke Franz Karl Joseph of Austria purchased one of Altmann’s paintings, which led to the creation of landscapes praised by fellow painters and connoisseurs; these were acquired by members of the Austrian imperial family—including Empress Karoline Auguste, Archduchess Sophie, Emperor Franz Joseph I, and Empress Elisabeth. Oil on canvas; signed and dated 1863 on the reverse. 63 cm x 50 cm. Framed. Oil on canvas. Signed and dated 1863.
