拍品資料及來源
In the late 19th century Franzensbad was one of the largest spa resorts in Europe, especially popular with the Russian nobility. According to Bogoliubov's autobiography, Zapiski moryaka-khudozhnika, he visited Franzensbad in the autumn of 1873 on his way home from Vienna, where he was tasked with overseeing the installation of the Russian pavilion at the 1873 World's Fair. On returning home, he exhibited three views of Franzensbad, possibly including the present lot, at the 3rd Itinerant Exhibition in St Petersburg and Moscow. In 1885 Bogoliubov donated House in Franzensbad and Washerwomen in Franzensbad to the Radishchev Museum in Saratov.
