View of Ortisei in 1860
Retrospective view of Ortisei
This painting, completed in 1925 by the painter Josef Moroder Lusenberg, is meant to depict Ortisei, the village where he grew up in the 1860s as seen from his house. This retrospective look is connected with the profound developments occurring in the valley in the wake of the booming art and tourist trade up until the First World War, causing farming to decline in importance.
This cultural asset is part of the tour "The turn-of-the-century economic boom in Ortisei: villas and workshops".
