Swiss Hostel by Martie Rains
Swiss Hostel
8"x10" oil on canvas
$125.00
Gimmelwald, a tiny village high in the Swiss Alps, inspired "Swiss Hostel." We stayed in the home of a local family, the parents being the only two school teachers in town. A huge glacier, just outside our bedroom window, glistened as it loomed above us providing a breathtaking view. There were no eating establishments save the Mountain Hostel which served great pizza. Cows grazed on the hillsides, the bells around their necks tinkling when they moved. Picturesque chalets, adding color to the beautiful and peaceful landscape, produced a scene right out of "Heidi."
