About the Item

Title: Austrian Folk Costume Pair, Hausruckkreis – Alpine Genre Scenes, 19th Century Description: This finely executed pair of 19th-century color prints depicts traditional folk life and regional costume from the Hausruckkreis, a historic district of Upper Austria. Presented as two complementary genre scenes, the prints show groups of figures engaged in everyday rural activities, set against expansive Alpine landscapes with mountains, fields, and waterways providing a strong sense of place. The first scene features figures in traditional dress gathered in conversation, including a mounted man and women wearing regional skirts, shawls, and distinctive headwear. The second scene shows rural travelers and peasants resting and interacting near water and mountainous terrain, their poses relaxed and natural. Together, the prints offer a lively yet harmonious portrayal of Austrian provincial life in the 19th century, balancing ethnographic interest with decorative elegance. Such images were produced during a period of growing fascination with regional identity within the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Costume, landscape, and daily custom were carefully documented, not only for educational purposes but also for their visual appeal. The clear compositions, balanced color palettes, and narrative detail made these prints popular wall decorations in bourgeois interiors of the time. The soft hand-applied coloring and careful lithographic printing give the scenes warmth and depth, while the paired format makes them especially suitable for symmetrical hanging. Today, these works appeal equally to collectors of European folk art and to interior designers seeking authentic, atmospheric Alpine imagery. Condition report: Good condition for age. Light age-related toning and minor scattered foxing, primarily in the margins. Colors remain fresh and well balanced. No major damages observed. Framing tips: Best displayed as a pair with generous off-white or light cream mats. Natural wood, walnut, or muted gilt frames enhance the Alpine character and complement the landscape tones. Technique: Chromolithography Maker: Central European publisher, Austria, 19th century
