SwissArtGallery · Documented identity
Described as a Bulgarian-Austrian painter, Adolf Baumgartner-Stoiloff is also associated with the names Constantin Stoiloff and Stoiloff-Baumgartner, used in particular for his Russian subjects. Born in Linz in 1850, he died in Vienna in 1924. The biographical entry also describes him as a painter of still lifes, historical subjects, landscapes and genre scenes.
Scenes of horsemen, carriages and sleighs in Russian landscapes occupy a prominent place in his work. Works listed under different names provide examples: The Gold Transport, oil on canvas, listed under the name C. Stoiloff, and Die Escorte, listed under the name Constantin Stoiloff-Baumgartner and signed C. Stoiloff-Baumgartner, a Russian winter landscape in which horse-drawn carriages are escorted by Cossacks on horseback. The Russian Governor's journey in winter, attributed to Constantin Stoiloff, alias A. Baumgartner, is described as a signed oil on panel; another entry lists a Snow Scene, oil on canvasboard, signed C. Stoiloff. These descriptions point to a body of Russian winter subjects, without, however, reducing the diversity of genres associated with him.
