The Hans Brühlmann circular trail leads around Vättis. At each of the seven most beautiful vantage points, a plaque invites you to linger and contemplate: through the eyes of the painter and draughtsman Hans Brühlmann (drawing from 1910 and 1911), through the eyes of the Vättner photo artist Korinna Fröhlich (double exposure photographs from 2021), and with your own eyes.

Details

Description

The circular route commemorates the painter Hans Brühlmann (1878–1911) from Eastern Switzerland. In the last years of his life (1910/1911), the artist created about a hundred Vättner drawings. At seven locations where Brühlmann drew Vättis, his drawings are juxtaposed with double-exposure photographs by the Vättner photo artist Korinna Fröhlich from modern times. The pictures and photographs are supplemented by references to interesting facts from history (on the board and on the website of the Vättis Tourist Office). The fourth element is the invitation to the viewer to look at the landscape and Vätti with his own eyes and to look for differences between the drawings of 1910/1911 and today's situation.  The picture journey is enriched by text about the works of art and the history of the village (also available via QR code).
