  • Hütte auf der Waucha-Alm (1910)

    Hütte auf der Waucha-Alm (1910)

    Georg Holub (Austrian, 1861–1919)

    A lone hut clings to the alpine slope, its weathered wood blending into the rocky outcrops. Thin mountain air sharpens the crisp lines of the roof against the sky. No people—just the quiet endurance of a structure built to outlast storms and seasons in this harsh, beautiful place.

  • ‘einzug’ (The Arrival)

    ‘einzug’ (The Arrival)

    Franz Xaver Simm (Austrian, 1853–1918)

    A lone rider emerges from the forest, his horse’s breath misting in the cold air. Sunlight breaks through the trees, glinting off armor and damp leaves. The quiet tension of an approaching moment hangs in the stillness—something is about to change.
