Literature: Marianne Saabye (ed.), “Krøyer i internationalt lys”, The Hirschsprung Collection & The Art Museums of Skagen, 2011, ill. p. 312. Saabye writes the following (in Danish): “In the autumn of 1901, the Krøyer family arrived in Eppan in Tyrol, where they settled at St. Valentine Castle. Here on the edge of the Alps with a view of the mountains and the prolific valley landscape, Krøyer painted a number of smaller studies, including the small view towards Bolzano with the castle Schloss Freudenstein (Cat. No. 131) [the present painting]. In the period after Krøyer's illness in 1900, they had repeatedly stayed in this area, where the climate was pleasant. Krøyer was well and the desire to work had returned.” (p. 313).
