Ruine Campi, Switzerland
by Michael Boss
Gouache on Rag Board
Original Painting Image size 26" x 17" Unframed
Researching the railroads of Switzerland, I found several old castle postcards
with a small steam train. The subject was too good to pass up. The castle was built
in the 13th Century and was added to throughout the centuries. Ruine Campi is located
in southeast Switzerland on the Rhaetian Railway's Albula line. I had planned on a
daylight painting, but at the last minute I found a Swiss rail photograph taken
at sunset and that changed the complexion of the painting.
