Caspar David Friedrich
and the harbingers of romance
Hardly any other artist of the Romantic period has been interpreted in so many ways and discussed so controversially as Caspar David Friedrich - but there was always agreement that he was the great innovator of landscape painting. However, little attention has been paid to the question of the traditions in which Friedrich moved. The exhibition now traces this aspect of the historical origins of Friedrich's painting and his new approach of landscape, which has received little attention to date. Thus, outstanding representatives of early mood painting such as Jacob van Ruisdael and Claude Lorrain will enter into dialogue with Friedrich's masterpieces.
The exhibition is a collaboration with the Museum Georg Schäfer in Schweinfurt.
