The Chiemsee, also called the Bavarian Lake, is the largest lake in Bavaria and the third largest lake in Germany.
Four men on a rowing boat are sailing on the lake and further on two more boats. Meanwhile, ominous weather is approaching them in this landscape.
Joseph Wopfner (also Josef Wopfner; born 19 March 1843 in Schwaz, Tyrol, † 22 July 1927 in Munich) was an Austrian landscape painter and representative of the Munich School. Because he often used motifs from the Chiemgau for his paintings, he is also known as a Chiemsee painter.
In 1873, he was one of the co-founders of the Munich artist association Allotria. In recognition of his achievements, he received the Bavarian Michael Order in 1887. The Royal Academy of Fine Arts, of which he had been an honorary member since 1896, appointed him titular professor on 3 November 1888.
