Opening to the public on February 8, this international loan exhibition brings together more than 75 paintings, drawings, and prints by Friedrich, the celebrated German Romantic artist whose landscapes articulate a profound connection between the natural world and the inner self, or soul. Situating his art within the tumultuous politics and vibrant culture of 19th-century German society, and exploring the ways he worked across media, the exhibition illuminates Friedrich’s distinctive vision of nature and the role of German Romanticism in shaping modern perceptions of the natural world.
