Sublime stillness: Capturing nature's moody splendor The solitude
of man and the bleak beauty of nature are prominent themes in the
work of Caspar David Friedrich (1774-1840), the great romantic
painter whose importance and influence have often been
underestimated. Now widely considered to be the most important
German artist of his generation, Friedrich died in obscurity and
wasn t fully appreciated until the early 20th century. An important
precursor to the Expressionists, Friedrich once wrote that an
artist must "close your bodily eye so that you may see your picture

summary of the life and oeuvre of the artist, covering his or her
cultural and historical importance a concise biography
approximately 100 illustrations with explanatory captions "
