Caspar David Friedrich: 110 Masterpieces (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781505857115)

This Art Book with Foreword and annotated reproductions by Maria Tsaneva contains 110 selected paintings and drawings of Caspar David Friedrich. Caspar David Friedrich was a German Romantic landscape painter, generally considered the most important German artist of his time and one of the most original geniuses in the history of landscape painting. He is best known for his mid-period allegorical landscapes which typically feature contemplative figures silhouetted against night skies, morning mists, barren trees or Gothic ruins. His primary interest as an artist was the contemplation of nature, and his often symbolic and anti-classical work seeks to convey a subjective, emotional response to the natural world.
