About the piece

Painted in 1908, this work by Ferdinand Hodler captures the evening mist on Lake Thun with an almost abstract luminosity. Using his theory of Parallelism, Hodler emphasizes the rhythmic beauty of nature through repeating horizontal forms and a soft, ethereal palette of blues and yellows, creating a work that feels remarkably modern.
