Maria van Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen

Maria van Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen was an artist whose documented activity spans the period from 1868 to 1883. Focusing primarily on printmaking, the artist is known through nine individual works currently held in institutional collections.

The documented output of Maria van Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen prints encompasses both landscape and portraiture subjects. Topographical views dominate the known works, often capturing specific architectural features and atmospheric detail, such as in Berglandschap met twee huizen and Landschap met watermolen. Examples like Gezicht op Werdenberg and Landschap met bewolkte lucht en rookpluim indicate an interest in rendering natural formations and expansive skies. In addition to these scenes, the artist also produced portraits, including Portret van een onbekende vrouw.

The preservation of these works is established by their inclusion in major European collections. Nine of Maria van Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen’s verifiable prints are held in the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. Due to their age, many of these museum-quality works reside in the public domain, allowing for the widespread availability of high-quality prints and other reproductions.
