About the artwork

In the icy stillness of winter, when the snow falls softly from the sky and the world is bathed in a shimmering white, the Schwansee reveals itself as an enchanting painting of nature. The frozen surface of the lake stretches out majestically, as if time itself has paused. The frosty breath of the season envelops the landscape, while the sun gently disappears behind the snow-covered peaks of the Tegelberg.
Neuschwanstein Castle rises on the horizon like a fairytale castle from times gone by. The towers rise up proudly and are reflected in the clear ice of the lake, as if they were entangled in a fairytale dance with nature. The Romantic Road, which leads through the picturesque region of the Ostallgäu, seems enchanted by this wintry backdrop, as if it had its own story to tell.
The Tegelberg, majestic and sublime, towers in the background, bearing the weight of history and beauty on its peaks, which rise up to 1720 metres. The mountain seems to take on the role of guardian over the idyllic Hohenschwangau, while the snow-covered forests and hills radiate an atmosphere of peace and serenity.
In this picture, nature and architecture merge into a harmonious work of art. It is the magic of winter that transforms the landscape into a poetic fairy tale and makes the Schwansee with Neuschwanstein Castle and the sublime Tegelberg an enchanting part of the Bavarian landscape - a tranquil moment captured in the winter splendour of Bavaria, woven into the threads of the Romantic Road, a timeless chapter in the history of Hohenschwangau.
