About the piece

Created circa 1898, this landscape by Ferdinand Hodler captures the Gantrisch mountain range with his characteristic focus on rhythm and structural harmony. The painting juxtaposes the soft, flowing lines of the foreground hills with the sharp, crystalline peaks of the high Alps, rendered in a sophisticated palette of earthy tones and cool blues.
