This forest interior study showing part of a Steinklüften, (a type of large rock formation) was taken near the village of St. Gilgen in the Austrian state of Salzburg. The photograph is believed to have been taken by Hans Wilhelm Joseph Kautsky, (1864-1937) an Austrian and Royal Prussian court theater painter in Vienna and Berlin.

Editorial comment for this plate on p. 26:

Zu den Kunstbeilagen.

Wir eröffnen den neuen Jahrgang mit zwei neuen Männern, die zu den besten Hoffnungen berechtigen: die Herren Hans Kautsky und Dr. F. V. Spitzer. Ersterer sandte uns das stimmungsvolle Waldinterieur, ein Motiv aus den Steinklüften bei St. Gilgen, letzterer das wohlgelungene Damenportät, dessen wir im Ausstellungsberichte gedachten.

We open the new issue by two new men that qualify for our best hopes: Mr Hans Kautsky and Dr. F.V. Spitzer. The former sent us the atmospheric forest interior, a design from the Steinklüfte in St. Gilgen, the latter probably the most successful Woman Portrait which we commemorated in the exhibition reports.
