Wilhelm Nicolaus Prachensky*
(Innsbruck 1898–1956)
Natters in Tirol / The village of Natters, Tyrol, monogrammed W. P., oil on cardboard, 66 x 50 cm, framed
Provenance:
Private Collection, Tyrol
Wilhelm Nikolaus Prachensky, one of the most important representatives of Tyrolean modernism in the interwar period, developed an increasingly reduced language of colour and form from the 1920s onwards. With this he gave the local landscape a modern, contemporary character.
Alongside landscapes and still lives, views of places and buildings soon took on a dominant position in his work. Prachensky found his motifs near his home on the Bergisel, and the surrounding valleys and in many villages in the Tyrolean low mountain range, including Natters. The view from above of the church square, which is characteristic of this lovely village, derives its special charm from the reduced colour of the white and brown tones. The thick snow cover on the roofs and paths underlines the square shape of the houses as well as the winding lines of the streets, thus intensifying the alpine character of the image.
