Das irrlicht by Gottlieb Theodor Kempf von Hartenkampf, 1871 (Vienna) - 1964 (Achrain).
Kempf von Hartenkampf attended the Academy in Vienna from 1886 to 1896 studying under J.V.Berger and L.K.Mueller. A significant figure in the turn-of-the-twentieth century Viennese art scene he showed with the Vienna Succession in 1899 and was also a member of the Siebener Club and Wiener Kunstlerhaus.
Das irrlicht (or Will-o’-the-wisp) is a strong example of his work which assimilates the influence of the Succession and Art Nouveau with a strongly symbolist style of his own. He also excelled as an etcher and illustrator and is represented in numerous museum collections in Continental Europe.
