The story behind the motif
Canvas with the beautiful painting Two Men Contemplating the Moon . The painting was created by the German artist Caspar David Friedrich around 1825-30. Friedrich is considered one of the most famous landscape painters of Romanticism.
The painting depicts a forest landscape where we see two men standing and looking at the moon. These two figures are seen from behind so that the viewer can participate in their communion with nature. They have been identified as Friedrich, on the right, and his friend and disciple August Heinrich.
Fascination with the moon was high among the German Romantics, who regarded the subject as an object of contemplation. This is the third version of one of Friedrich's most famous compositions, the first of which was painted during Heinrich's lifetime and the second shortly after his death (c. 1824).
Artist: Caspar David Friedrich | Created: 1825-30.
Frame not included.
