Divine Paintings Of Famous Artists
Germany is not well known as a territory of great painters as well as France or Italy
. However, here was born one of the most renowned landscape painters of Europe. Caspar David Friedrich (1774 1840) born in Greifswald, a port on the Baltic Sea. He is considered the leading figure of German Romantic painting. His Paintings represent a feeling of deep panic about the nature. These Paintings are located in the most important museums of Germany. Caspar Friedrich received his first artistic training with the painter Johann Gottfried Quistorp in his natal city, and then studied at the Academy of Copenhagen from 1794 to 1798 where he concentrated on landscape painting, his favorite subject.
Friedrich was the six of ten children. Nevertheless, he had a hard childhood because his mother died when he was only seven years. Unfortunately, some of his brothers and sisters also died for different illness and accidents during his childhood. These events marked his life and were reflected in his Paintings. Caspar David Friedrich established permanently in Dresden in 1798. During this time, he experimented in printmaking with etchings and woodcuts. Friedrich became popular after painted his most famous work "Abbey under Oak Trees" where he combined his romantic vision with a realistic depiction.
Among the most recognized Friedrich's Paintings we can mention the following: Cloister Cemetery in the Snow, Port by Moonlight (1811), Chalk Cliffs on Rugen (1818), Woman on the Beach of Rugen (1818), The Crow, Moon Rising Over the Sea (1821), The Tree of Crows (1822), The Wreck of Hope (1824), Riesengebirge (1835), On Board a Sailing Ship, City at Moonrise (1817) and The Cross on the Mountain.
