KAPRUN, AUSTRIA – Wall Hanging

Kaprun - Austria - wall relief plate (1)PLACE REPRESENTED: Kaprun , Austria

ITEM: Wall Hanging

NOTES: “Gruss aus Kaprun” means “Greetings from Kaprun”.

Kaprun is a municipality in western Austria famous for its glacier Kitzsteinhorn, skiing and tourism.

This well detailed hard resin wall hanging, is no doubt, made to replace the old traditional wooden wall carvings of the same style. It’s even made to look like it’s made of wood. The plate is detailed with the town, glacier, mountains and dams. I suppose it is post 2000 as the two funicular railways, the site of the Kaprun disaster of 2000, are not depicted.

YEAR (APPROXIMATE): 2000s
