RIEMERSCHMID, Richard
(b. 1868, München, d. 1957, München)

Garden of Eden

1900
Oil on canvas, 160 x 164 cm (with frame)
Lenbachhaus, Munich

In contrast to his colleagues, Richard Riemerschmid never gave up painting, and his Symbolistic, decorative pictures are of high quality.

The frame (wood, painted plaster) has the inscription: Und Gott der Herr Pflantze in einen Garten Eden (And the Lord God planted a garden in Eden)
