This painting was previously for sale.

Karl Holleck-Weithmann mainly painted landscapes, which have a mysterious appearance due to the sometimes strong contrast between (sun)light and shadow. The painter received his training at the academies of Munich and Berlin and finally settled in the latter city around 1895. He made study trips to the Alps and regularly stayed on the island of Rügen and in the northern German town of Zeven, where a small artists' colony was established. Holleck-Weithmann exhibited around 1903 and 1909 at the Berliner Secession, founded by the modern artists of the time.
