Discover Caspar David Friedrich Mountains, hand-reproduced in oil on canvas.
1805 -1835 · Bohemia, mist and elevation
Caspar David Friedrich travels through Saxon Switzerland, Bohemia, the Harz and the Giant Mountains, drawing rocks, ridges, valleys and trees with great precision. However, he does not seek to restore a panorama from a single point. In the workshop, he combines studies carried out in different places to build an interior mountain. The ridge in the clouds makes the summit almost inaccessible, while the mountain lake in the morning opens a calm depth between water and relief. The views of Bohemia, with Mount Milleschauer or the motif called Monte Rosa in bohemian Switzerland, use the distant silhouette as a stable center. The Cross in the Mountain, linked to the Altarpiece of Tetschen makes the landscape itself a support of devotion: fir trees, rays and crucifixes connect nature and faith. Mist, rainbow or first light are not added effects; they regulate the relationship between what is visible and what remains anticipated. The "Mountains of Caspar David Friedrich" selection notably compares high mountain ridge with the clouds of driving and Landscape with Monte Rosa in bohemian Switzerland. His reading favors composition.
Friedrich's mountain is less a summit to conquer than a distance to contemplate: the mist keeps open the invisible part of the landscape.
