Exhibition Tour — Caspar David Friedrich: The Soul of Nature | Met Exhibitions

"Join Alison Hokanson, Curator in the Department of European Paintings, and Joanna Sheers Seidenstein, Assistant Curator in the Department of Drawings and Prints, along with Max Hollein, Marina Kellen French Director and CEO, to virtually explore Caspar David Friedrich: The Soul of Nature. Caspar David Friedrich (1774–1840) reimagined European landscape painting by portraying nature as a setting for profound spiritual and emotional encounters. Working in the vanguard of the German Romantic movement, which championed a radical new understanding of the bond between nature and the inner self, Friedrich developed pictorial subjects and strategies that emphasize the individuality, intimacy, open-endedness, and complexity of our responses to the natural world. The vision of the landscape that unfolds in his art—meditative, mysterious, and full of wonder—is still vital today. Learn more about the exhibition: https://www.metmuseum.org/exhibitions...
