„The artist should not copy nature
but take the elements of nature
and create a new element.“
(Quote by Paul Gaugin from Alfons Walde’s diary)
Alfons Walde Portrait
Alfons Walde, born in Oberndorf (suburb of Kitzbühel), Austria, on February 8 1981; died on December 11th 1958 in Kitzbühel, was an Austrian painter and architect.
Influenced by Secessionism, he created still lifes, landscapes and scenes from rural life. Alfons Walde became internationally known primarily through the posters he created between 1920 and 1938 with winter landscapes and winter sports motifs. His pictures shaped Tyrol as a winter sports country.
