More about this artwork

Embark on a timeless journey with Caspar David Friedrich’s evocative 1822 masterpiece, "Woman at a Window." This painting presents an intimate moment captured in time, as a woman stands at an open window, peering out into the distance. Her back to the viewer, the woman is adorned in a flowing dress with hues of green and brown, which almost blend her into the warm interior of the room.Framed by the sturdy browns of the window and the muted tones of the walls, the window acts as a portal to the outside world, highlighted by the soft, bright light of a clear sky. A glimpse of a tall ship’s mast suggests a view from a high vantage point over a distant harbor, inviting speculations about her thoughts and reflections as she gazes outward.Subtle yet poignant, "Woman at a Window" offers a moment of solitude and contemplation. Friedrich’s work encapsulates the Romantic era's fascination with emotion, nature, and the sublime, drawing the viewer into a delicate interplay between the inner world and the vast expanses beyond.

Caspar David Friedrich (5 September 1774 – 7 May 1840) was a German Romantic landscape painter, generally considered the most important German artist of his generation. He is best known for his allegorical landscapes, which typically feature contemplative figures silhouetted against night skies, morning mists, barren trees or Gothic ruins. His primary interest was the contemplation of nature, and his often symbolic and anti-classical work seeks to convey a subjective, emotional response to the natural world. Friedrich's paintings characteristically set a human presence in diminished perspective amid expansive landscapes, reducing the figures to a scale that, according to the art historian Christopher John Murray, directs "the viewer's gaze towards their metaphysical dimension".
