Original Description
Anton Faistauer's Doppelportrat (Frau und Tochter des Malers) is a captivating early 20th-century portrait radiating warmth and intimacy. Painted ca. 1919–1920 during Austria's expressive post-war period, the work showcases Faistauer's distinctive blend of Austrian Expressionism and tonal sensitivity. The artist depicts his wife and daughter with tender brushstrokes, their figures softly illuminated against a subdued background that emphasizes familial connection over formal grandeur. Faistauer’s style bridges traditional portraiture and modernist experimentation—notice how the faces retain individuality while the flowing drapery hints at Art Nouveau influences. Historically significant, this painting exemplifies the cultural resurgence of Salzburg’s artistic circle post-WWI, where Faistauer co-founded the Wassermann art group advocating for renewed Austrian identity through painting. The quiet dignity of the composition distinguishes it from more radical Expressionist works, offering instead a contemplative study of domestic harmony that anticipates later magical realist tendencies.
For interior styling, this masterpiece’s muted ochres and rose tones would elevate a wood-paneled study or a softly lit sitting room. Choose walls in Farrow & Ball’s "Setting Plaster" to complement its warm palette, or create dramatic contrast against deep forest green. The ideal display height places the center at 57–60 inches (standard gallery hanging) above a vintage walnut console or streamlined mid-century sideboard. Scale matters—as the original measures approximately 100x80cm, avoid overcrowding; flank with minimalist sconces or leave breathing space between other artworks. In contemporary offices, it anchors collaborative spaces beautifully when paired with tactile materials like shearling chairs or a rough-linen sofa. For color echoes, incorporate terracotta ceramics or dried bouquets matching the portrait’s earthy notes. The painting’s intimate mood suits residential spaces best—consider it above a bedroom mantel where morning light can replicate Faistauer’s delicate luminosity, transforming private quarters into a personal kunstkammer.
