"Wenglein's prime position among German landscape artists is largely due to the fact that he remained true to his homeland with all his heart. This allows him to conceive and depict it from ever new perspectives. This love is the basis for his abundance of motifs!" (Quote from: Pecht, Friedrich: Josef Wenglein, in: Die Kunst für alle 8 (1893), pp. 177-179, here p. 177)
