This work shows Salzburg from an elevated vantage point, with the river running through the city and the historic architecture framed by trees and surrounding mountains.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKasimir was internationally recognized for his architectural and cityscape etchings, and this piece exemplifies his mature style. The composition is detailed and balanced, with confident etched linework and carefully applied hand coloring. Color is used selectively to emphasize depth and structure rather than decoration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe etching exhibits a strong, clearly visible plate impression, indicating a high-quality early pull. The work is signed in pencil in the lower margin. An inscription referencing Salzburg alongside Naples and Constantinople, with a quotation attributed to Alexander von Humboldt, reflects Kasimir’s recurring theme of historic cities shaped by geography and time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe print has been professionally and archivally mounted to a backing board cut to the exact dimensions of the paper. This mounting was done in a careful conservation manner typical of earlier archival practices. The paper remains in very good condition, with no visible tears, losses, or staining, and the hand coloring remains fresh and stable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt nearly thirty inches in width, this is a substantial and visually commanding example of Kasimir’s work, larger than most examples encountered on the market. It is well suited for collectors of early 20th-century European prints, architectural etchings, and historic city views.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOffered unframed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArtist: Luigi Kasimir (1881–1962)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTitle: Salzburg from the Heights, along the Salzach River\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMedium: Hand-colored etching on paper\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSignature: Signed in pencil\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions: 29½ × 17¾ inches (sheet)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition: Very good; professionally mounted to archival backing board; strong plate impression\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blackwell Portfolio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48565747450080,"sku":null,"price":1150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/4774\/6016\/files\/IMG_1931.jpg?v=1768780613","url":"https:\/\/theblackwellportfolio.com\/products\/salzburg-austria-signed-hand-colored-etching-by-luigi-kasimir","provider":"Blackwell Portfolio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
