Alpine Reaches: Switzerland, Italy and Austria
The drama of the Alps captured the interest of two Swiss artists, François Diday and Alexandre Calame. They in turn taught Americans Albert Bierstadt and Worthington Whittredge. John Singer Sargent painted watercolors of Alpine passes, while Austrian Oskar Kokoschka took a modernist approach to alpine peaks and valleys. Gustav Klimt summered in Lake Attersee in the Austrian lake region, and painted luminous, colorful scenes.
