ZINKENBACH PAINTERS' COLONY -
INSIGHTS INTO PRIVATE COLLECTIONS
The Zinkenbach Painters' Colony Museum in St. Gilgen on Lake Wolfgang is a small, fine museum that sheds light on the life and work of the artists who spent their summer retreats at the Adambauer farm in Zinkenbach during the interwar period.

You can look forward to numerous unpublished landscape paintings, portraits, still lifes and prints by Josef Dobrowsky, Georg Ehrlich, Ernst Huber, Ludwig Heinrich Jungnickel, Ferdinand Kitt, Oskar Laske, Georg Merkel, Sergius Pauser, Lisel Salzer, Gertrude Schwarz - Helberger, Franz von Zülow and many more.
