Alpine zoo

- 07 May 2017 - 

Today I decided to go to the zoo. I didn’t want to be inside all day even though the weather was drizzly. Innsbruck has a zoo, but it is not an ordinary one. It only has animals which are living or have lived in the alps. It’s located on the mountain so the difference between the highest and the lowest point of the zoo is roughly 100 meters. This gave a nice view of the animals. For example with the lynxes, you could either take the path along the lynxes quarters at the downside or upside. So when I didn’t get a good shot with my camera on the one side, I would simply walk to the other side and see if I was better able to see them from there. I was really pleased with the pictures I took today.

I just loved this crazy wolf: 

I was lucky because I saw both the otters and the wolves getting fed in the late afternoon. 

The mountain goats were so cute:

The place for the capricorns was brilliant. You could go in there and just be separated from them by a rope. The oldest male had very big horns and was just standing in one place all the time. So still that when people entered they were startled because he was real. 

I would say the capricorns were my favourite animals of the day. I certainly spent the most of my time there.

Johannes Gumpp, el pintor cuya única obra es un misterioso triple autorretrato

Johannes Gumpp fue un pintor austríaco nacido en Innbruck hacia 1626, y del que apenas se sabe que pertenecía a una familia de artistas activos en Tirol y Baviera entre los siglos XVI y XVIII, y que muy joven se trasladó a Florencia, donde en 1646 realizó las dos copias de su única obra conocida.

Después de eso…
