Description:
Winter scene with a creek. Walter Koeniger (1881-1943) was born in Germany. He moved to Woodstock, New York around 1912 where he fell in love with winter. He had studied architecture before coming to the United States but his first love was to be an artist. He became well known by painting winter scenes of the Catskill mountains in New York state. He also lived in New York City where he painted magnificent winter scenes of water and bridges. A 1925 magazine says about Koeniger's work, "An artist who has dedicated his life to the depiction of the American landscape in the winter months." (Item 00982)
