About the piece

Painted in 1912 by Swiss master Ferdinand Hodler, this work exemplifies his style of 'parallelism,' which sought to reveal the underlying symmetry and order of nature. The composition masterfully balances the detailed shoreline of Lausanne with the vast, ethereal presence of the lake and sky, creating a profound sense of peace and spatial depth.
