Caspar David Friedrich<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Caspar David Friedrich was a German atmospheric landscape and seascape Painter during the romanticism period.\u00a0 He studied at the very renowned Copenhagen Academy from 1794 to 1798 and learned from many different painters including Philipp Otto Runge.\u00a0 His paintings were moving away from religious symbolic meaning of the past to symbolic landscapes.\u00a0 He had a mature style with close attention to detail, yet he also incorporated a kind of mystical ominous feel to the beautiful nature scenes he would paint.\u00a0 His first oil painting \u201cThe Cross in the Mountains\u201d was the first to establish this new style he was developing.\u00a0 He went on to become a professor at the <\/em>Royal Dresden Art Academy.\u00a0 He later suffered from a stroke in 1837 which left him paralyzed, causing his reputation to decline significantly by the time of his death.\u00a0 His work was revived in the 20th century and his legacy became a lot more profound by the 21\u2019st century.\u00a0 I enjoy Friedrichs art as he painted landscapes beautifully, but I appreciate his work even further for the matter that the style he painted his landscapes in gave the scenery life and their own whimsical persona. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
