Original artwork description:

Silsersee, Engadin Valley
Oil on canvas

Inspired by the breathtaking alpine scenery of the Upper Engadin Valley in Grisons, Switzerland, this oil painting depicts the tranquil beauty of Silsersee (Lake Sils). The turquoise waters of the lake shimmer beneath towering peaks and rolling green hills, framed by wild epilobium flowers in radiant pinks and purples.

Created in a realistic style, the work emphasizes fine detail and atmosphere, drawing the viewer into the serenity of the scene. The balance of sky, mountains, water, and wildflowers invites a sense of calm, awe, and quiet reflection—echoing the stillness of nature itself.

With its vivid colours and lifelike textures, the painting aims to bring the viewer not only into the landscape, but into its mood: peaceful, restorative, and full of wonder.
