On Thursday I got four postcards from Austria.
One of them shows the painting Winter Landscape with Ice skaters and Bird trap. Attributed to the entourage of Pieter Bruegel the Elder, there are more than 100 different versions of this painting. The version from the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna is shown on this card, which is said to have been painted by Pieter Brueghel the Younger, the version from Brussels however is said to be the original one.
Of the six Austrian's Christmas for this year this one has to be my favourite, as I like the Brueg(h)el paintings very much. It is so wonderful to receive it on this perfectly matching card with First Day Special Postmark.
Thank You very much Anita!
