About the piece

Painted in 1912 by Ferdinand Hodler, this work captures Le Grand Muveran from Villars with the artist's signature rhythmic style. The composition focuses on the massive silhouette of the mountain, using a serene palette of cool violets and warm creams to evoke the atmospheric light and monumental presence of the high Alps.
