About the piece
Created in 1917, this late landscape by Ferdinand Hodler captures the expansive beauty of Lake Geneva from the vantage point of Caux. The work exemplifies Hodler's signature style of 'parallelism,' where the rhythmic repetition of clouds and shoreline creates a sense of cosmic order and tranquil harmony in a refreshing, cool palette.
