A print of “Wanderer above the Sea of Fog” by Caspar David Friedrich on your wall
A summit, mist to the horizon and one man looking ahead - Wanderer above the Sea of Fog has been the painting of ambitious people for two centuries. Caspar David Friedrich enclosed the picture in a vertical composition that fits a CEO's office, a home office or a narrow wall beside the stairs perfectly. A print of Wanderer above the Sea of Fog in cool greys, misty blues and the delicate pink of the sky harmonises with Scandinavian-style interiors, modern classic schemes and understated minimalism. Dibond draws out the subtle tonal transitions; 5 mm acrylic glass adds depth and makes the mist seem to flow. In a bedroom the painting calms, in a study it motivates. Mountain lovers can order wallpaper in which the mist spreads across the whole wall. A well-chosen gift for a promotion or an anniversary. Enter any dimensions in the artMonte configurator and we will print the wall art exactly for your space.

Wanderer above the Sea of Fog
About the artwork
Wanderer above the Sea of Fog shows a man in a dark frock coat, seen from behind, standing on a rocky summit above a valley wrapped in mist, from which successive mountain ridges emerge. Caspar David Friedrich painted the picture around 1818. The figure shown from behind, the so-called Rückenfigur, lets the viewer adopt its perspective and share its contemplation of nature. The canvas in the Hamburger Kunsthalle in Hamburg has become an emblem of German Romanticism and an image of solitude before the sublimity of the world.
