Caspar David Friedrich, 2015

Overview

The works of Caspar David Friedrich (1774-1840) explore themes of solitude and the stark beauty of nature. Though now recognized as a leading German artist of his era and a precursor to Expressionism, his influence was not fully appreciated until the early 20th century. Friedrich believed artists should perceive with the spiritual eye, bringing inner visions to light to impact others.
