The Abbey in the Oakwood

Artist: Caspar David Friedrich
Artwork: The Abbey in the Oakwood
Description: This painting is a masterful example of Friedrich’s use of light and shadow to create a sense of mystery and atmosphere. The dark, shadowy interior of the abbey is contrasted with the bright, sunlit landscape outside. The painting is also full of symbolism, with the abbey representing the power of religion and the landscape representing the beauty and power of nature.
