Emil Rau
ARTISTArt is always a mirror of its time. And the pictures of Emil Rau met (and meet) a deep need of many people: In the background the bluish mountain ranges of the Alps, in the foreground a dashing girl with rosy cheeks in a dirndl, three farmers in traditional costume greeting each other and chatting in a relaxed manner, in the midst of Alpine meadows, alpine pastures or in rustic (but spotless) farmhouses. Bavarian cultural landscape, joie de vivre, original rural community, clean and rosy and idyllic, often with the patina of oversized poetry album or decals.
