Ingeborg STROBL, ein Garten (zum Beispiel) (2008). Vienna (Austria).
The title of this enamel work, which was executed in 2008, refers to
previous names for Novaragasse (Garden Lane from 1797 to 1812 and
Gardener's Lane until 1862). a garden (for example) is an artistic
study of the fundamental changes that have occurred in the lane over
the centuries and may also provide stimulating ideas for one's own
garden.
The models used for the plant images are woodcuts from the nineteenth century, which in turn also allude to the Novara Expedition (1857-1859), the first large-scale scientific expedition of the Austrian navy.
