About the Item

Peter Umlauf (Czech, b. 1940) – "Das Fenster" (The Window), 1978 A striking signed and numbered colour etching by Czech-born artist Peter Umlauf, titled Das Fenster ("The Window"). This evocative architectural composition depicts the fragmentary façade of a ruined building, its rhythm of arched openings and darkened windows set against a luminous blue sky. The image balances precise draughtsmanship with a dreamlike atmosphere, creating a subtle dialogue between architecture, memory and decay. Executed in Umlauf's distinctive style, the work demonstrates his fascination with architectural forms and spatial illusion. The weathered surface of the structure is rendered with remarkable texture and detail, while the repeated arches and deep shadowed recesses lend the composition a strong sense of geometry and quiet monumentality. The restrained palette of warm ochres, soft greys and deep blues enhances the contemplative quality of the image. Signed and dated in pencil by the artist and numbered 93 from an edition of 150. Presented in its original dark frame with wide mount, complementing the graphic strength of the composition. Peter Umlauf's prints are admired for their blend of realism and poetic surrealism, often exploring themes of architecture, history and the passage of time. This example is a particularly atmospheric and decorative work, equally suited to contemporary and traditional interiors. Medium: Colour etching and aquatint on paper Edition: 93/150 Date: 1998 Title: Das Fenster ("The Window") Signed: Pencil signed, titled and numbered by the artist.
