A stark winter landscape features a wayside religious shrine near a tree. 

Eminent Viennese pictorialist photographer Julius Aschauer, (b. 1878?) who perfected the bromoil process to a high level, was made a fellow of the Royal Photographic Society in 1927, and was active as an amateur in the 1920s and 1930s.

Mr. Aschauer sent about twenty of the finest Bromoil Transfers over the period of the year and achieved three of the medals. That he did not win oftener is an evidence that judges can and do find the value that may lie in even a snap-shot when it carries a message of art and beauty. And it proves that juries are not always swayed by the wonders of technic or the fame that lies in a name. — “THIS IS THE CUP WINNER”: Camera Craft: April, 1926, p. 177: illustrated: THE BEGGAR- Medalist and First  Award Camera Craft May Competition
