Alla auktioner / Diverse / Alberto Rieger (1834-1905), Attributed to - Paesaggio costiero
Attributed to Alberto Rieger (1834–1905) – Port view of the city of Trieste – Watercolor, 19th century An interesting 19th-century port view, executed in watercolor and pencil on paper, depicting the city of Trieste. The composition features numerous boats distributed across the water surface, buildings facing the port, and a settlement rising toward a hill dominated by a fortification complex. The topographic rendering of the landscape is particularly accurate, built through fine line work and light color washes in shades of blue, green, ocher, and pink. On the back of the old framing appears the signature bearing the name “Rieger,” in addition to a broader label with a pencil inscription, now difficult to interpret. The old price in Lire is faintly visible. The reference is particularly interesting in relation to the family of Triestine vedutisti (view painters) the Riegers, and, in particular, to Alberto Rieger (Trieste 1834 – Vienna 1905), a painter and draftsman specialized in urban and landscape views, frequently executed in watercolor. Alberto Rieger, son of the painter and cityscape painter Giuseppe Rieger (1802–1883), studied at the Academy of Venice and worked in Trieste until his move to Vienna in 1870. Public collections in Trieste preserve numerous of his views, including works executed in pencil and watercolor on paper. In the absence of a clearly identifiable autograph signature or further documentation, attributing the work to Alberto Rieger should nonetheless be considered prudent and is proposed on the basis of the old indication on the back and the affinities of subject, technique, and period. The work is presented in an elegant oval gold frame, richly decorated with raised relief featuring vegetal, floral, and scroll motifs, also in an eighteenth/nineteenth-century taste.
