David Friedrich Caspar: A collection of 175 paintings (HD)
Description: "Romanticism was an early nineteenth-century aesthetic movement encompassing nature, nationalism, and spirituality. In Germany, it found perfect expression in the music of Beethoven, the writings of Goethe, and the art of Caspar David Friedrich. Today, Friedrich is recognised as the quintessential German Romantic painter. In his lifetime, though, he achieved only modest fame, and his talent was cheapened by imitation. His melancholy, sometimes morbid style appealed to Romantic tastes, but fell from favour as the ardour of Romanticism cooled.
Born 5 September 1774, Friedrich is often compared to his contemporaries, the landscape painters Turner and Constable. But his paintings are not landscapes; Friedrich never painted from nature. He travelled throughout northern Europe and made detailed sketches of its terrain, but his paintings contain elements of different settings in wholly imagined scenes. Friedrich actually ignores the law of nature for aesthetic impact.
In his paintings Friedrich rarely depicts people, except to emphasise nature's vastness. When figures appear in his paintings, they stand with their backs to the viewer, lost in contemplation. Friedrich is primarily a religious artist. The Romantic worship of nature finds literal expression in his work, which articulates the artist's Protestant faith through natural symbolism. On a sensual level, his paintings deliver a frisson of ecstasy or horror. But they also demand intellectual decoding.
The transience of human existence, the redemptive powers of nature, man at the mercy of the elements - all are stock themes of Romanticism. For Friedrich, though, they had personal meaning too. At 13, Friedrich fell through the surface of a frozen lake and nearly perished. His brother saved Friedrich's life but drowned in the effort. Friedrich's mother died in 1781, and a sister ten years later. His dark, deeply religious paintings may reflect these childhood tragedies.
After studying in Copenhagen, Friedrich left his home, Greifswald, for Dresden, the art capital of Europe in the nineteenth century. He specialised in sepia, watercolours, and topographical drawings, turning to oils by 1808. In 1825, Friedrich suffered a severe illness from which he never fully recovered. A decade later, a stroke left him partially paralysed, and too weak to paint in oils. Instead, he returned to the watercolours and sepias of his youth. But he was a broken, bitter man. He died on 7th May 1840, impoverished and obscure.
Friedrich remained shrouded in obscurity until the 1890s, when he was rediscovered by the Symbolists. In 1945, fire gutted the National Gallery, Berlin, destroying many of his masterpieces. The scarcity of Friedrich's paintings heightens their emotive power today."

I agree. He has so much depth to his paintings. I also think he is very underrated. I love his work.

Not sure if he is the best painter, but he is the one who triggers deep emotions. His paintings resonate with me. I can imagine myself being the Rueckenfigur person watching the sunset, or the moon, or the sea of fog with the mountain peaks.
Big fan of his artwork. I put this on my 42" flat screen TV and pause at times just to look at his inner detailing. Just a magnificent artist. I joke with friends that if they win the lotto they need to buy me a piece of artwork of his and I'll be happy for the rest of my life.
His Name was Caspar David Friedrich, not David Friedrich Caspar, just for clarification.
This very important painter will become one of your favourites if you have the opportunity of watching some exhibition about his pictures. Friedrich's pictures transmit mistery, pose questions. It's clearly a romantic and symbolic painter. For me it was impossible not to fell under his spell. It's a haunting, very interesting painter. The only critic I could do is that some of his pictures were of smaller size than I would have liked. But if you like to look at pictures that seem to be asking you about their meanings, Friedrich is the one. I remember the man stepping into a forest. You can only see his back while he walks away into the forest. Wilderness counts for Friedrich. And men seem to be lost and vulnerable, face to this "superior" power. I was told, you see, the forest could be life. Life is a forest, isn't it? - and yes, out of the blue I was just another man getting into the forests of life. It's quite a poetic kind of painter, and so, a lovely one. It also transmits some kind of inner peace in his landscapes with lonely men in. A fascinating genius of painting history. 💎❤️👍🤗
Beautiful paintings

It really speaks to me!
This collection is very beautiful!
Painters are painted and always admirables 🤩
So wonderful artist, visions. Thx !!
There are actually around 300 paintings by Friedrich that still survive. Helmut Borsch-Supan published his catalogue of Friedrich's works in 1976, which consist of around 250 works (both surviving and lost), and Christina Grummt published her catalogue in 2011, which also compiles around 1000 over his drawings and sketches. Other works have been discovered since both of those publications, but the number is usually interpreted as around 300.
¡¡Emocionante!! Muchas gracias...

Amoooo... 🥰😍❤️
لهذا الرسام القُدرة على أن يدلك على الطريق الذي يؤدي إلى داخل نفسك . أثناء مشاهدة هذه اللوحات تذكرت إقتباس لهرمان هيسّه "One has to be able to slip into oneself just like a turtle" ولوحات كاسبار داڤيد تجعلنا نحدق داخل أنفسنا من خلال الشخصيات في اللوحة ومن خلال إتساع المشاهد الدافئة الموجودة في كل أجزاء اللوحة. تنظر للشخصيات تراها غير مكترثة بشيء غير إنها تغوص في أعماق شيءٍ ما ، تشاهد حضورها لكن عند التأمل فيها تستطيع معرفة أنها تُسافر في البعيد الذي لا تعرف إن كان في أعماق الشخصيات أو أمامها !
👌👍❤
W E (White English) say ALL of Caspar David Friedrich's paintings are simply beautiful:
you should've put period music
WOW... His name is CASPAR DAVID FRIEDRICH
Hermeneutiikan tunnilla opettaja käytti esimerkkiä: kun astutte huoneeseen, jossa viisi ihmistä tuijottaa kattoon, mitä teette silloin? Käännätte katseenne kattoon tietenkin! Kun siis katsotte taulua, katsokaa tarkkaan mihin taulun henkilöt tuijottavat...

Is this style Gothic Landscape fused with a bit of Surrealism ?

It's so-called Deutch Romanticism.
