About the piece
Painted around 1822, Caspar David Friedrich’s 'Rocky Ravine in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains' is a hallmark of German Romanticism. The composition masterfully contrasts the sublime, misty heights of the sandstone pillars with the dark, tangible details of the forest floor, evoking a sense of nature's spiritual and untamed power.
