More about this artwork

Our latest exhibit features the serene yet poignant masterpiece "Lake Geneva From Chexbres" painted by Swiss artist Ferdinand Hodler in 1905. This work captures the breathtaking landscape surrounding Lake Geneva, viewed from above the village of Chexbres.In this painting, Hodler masterfully combines elements of symbolism and naturalism. The composition is split horizontally into elaborately detailed layers - the lush greens of the foreground meadows, the rich turquoise of the lake, and the distant blue haze of the mountains, culminating in a vast expanse of sky dotted with dynamic cloud formations. These elements marry to form a synthesis that underscores the artist's profound connection to his homeland.The striking use of color articulates the emotional depth of the scenery. Reflective of Hodler's style, the rhythmic patterns of the clouds and the textural details in the landscape create a harmonious visual melody that invites the viewer to take a moment of reflection."Lake Geneva From Chexbres" is a testament to Hodler’s ability to convey extensive emotional and spiritual experience through the meticulous study of nature and his surroundings.

Ferdinand Hodler (March 14, 1853 – May 19, 1918) was one of the best-known Swiss painters of the nineteenth century. His early works were portraits, landscapes, and genre paintings in a realistic style. Later, he adopted a personal form of symbolism which he called "parallelism".
