Museum Leopold/Vienna
Boeckl is not concerned with creating the illusion
of a beautiful landscape, but with developing an independent structure. The
colours are without contrast, giving a diffuse, neutral light. There is
no attempt to create atmosphere. Although the landscape is bathed in sunlight,
there is hardly a shadow to be seen. This gives a compact, static effect.
