An immense rainbow connects shepherds, river, city and mountains: Koch composes an ideal nature where classical order meets romantic aspiration.
Joseph Anton Koch was born in 1768 in Tyrol and died in Rome in 1839. Installed in Italy, he became a tutelary figure for many German-speaking artists and renewed the heroic landscape inherited from Claude Lorrain and Nicolas Poussin. Heroic landscape with rainbow, dated 1824, is an oil on canvas measuring 108.6 × 95.9 cm. Koch called this invention his "Greek landscape". This is the fourth and final version of a composition inaugurated in 1805. The view does not reproduce a single place: it assembles pastures, rivers, classical architecture and mountains in a deliberately ideal world. The rainbow unifies the whole, a sign of appeasement after the storm and bridge symbolic between earth and sky. The clarity of each shot gives this constructed nature the appearance of a lasting order. The "Joseph Anton Koch" selection notably compares Heroic Landscape with Rainbow. His reading favors details.
The rainbow does not only cross the sky: it gives a common law to figures, the city and the mountains.
