The György Rauscher Archive

The Beöthy villa

The Beöthy villa, on Erzsébet sziget (Elizabeth Island) in Komárom, held the studio where György Rauscher worked during his summers. His parents kept the studio for him there, and it was the setting for the “months of artistic recharge” he spent in his home town (/bibliography#szamado-2019, p. 9).

A document of lost works

The villa matters to the archive for one particular reason: a photograph taken in the studio in 1926 shows several Rauscher paintings together, among them Síelők (Skiers), whose composition later became a Sport im Bild cover (/bibliography#szamado-2019, p. 22).

Photographs like this one are, for many works, the only surviving visual record, and they are part of how the archive documents paintings that are otherwise untraced (see /works/not-located).
