MONK BY THE SEA, Painting by Caspar David Friedrich (1809)


Caspar David Friedrich expressed a long expanse of dark with a moody beach and a tiny figure of a monk. Which contemplates the vastness and sublimity of the landscape from the edge of the water. The coastline is mysteriously quiet and fog has drawn a veil over most of the details of the landscape, creating a
Mood that is hushed and solemn.
