Rudolf von Alt (1812-1905): A Viennese Master of Landscapes and Interiors Austrian painter Rudolf von Alt is renowned for his captivating landscapes and interior scenes. In 1882, he created an enchanting interior view of the Salon in Obertwaltersdorf Castle. His watercolors, such as the panorama of Vienna from 1871 and the views of the North and South Stations from 1852, showcase his exceptional talent for urban landscapes. Venturing beyond Austria, Alt's watercolor of the Interior of the Basilica di San Marco in Venice from 1884 is a testament to his versatility. His works, including the Swiss Villa from 1896 and the Ruin of a Church from 1849, display his mastery of light and shadow, as well as his ability to evoke a sense of tranquility and nostalgia. In 1885, Hans Makart's studio was auctioned, and Alt painted a poignant scene of the event. His watercolor, "Hans Makarts studio before auction," is a valuable historical record and a testament to the artistic community of Vienna during that era. From the grandeur of the Winter Palace of Prince Eugene of Savoy in Vienna to the serene beauty of a Swiss villa, Rudolf von Alt's artistry transcends time and place, inviting us to explore the past and appreciate the beauty of the world around us.
