Wanderer Above the Sea of Fog

Oil painting by Caspar David Friedrich

Wanderer Above the Sea of Fog is a painting by German Romanticist artist Caspar David Friedrich in 1818. It depicts a man standing upon a rocky precipice with his back to the viewer; he is gazing out on a landscape covered in a thick sea of fog through which other ridges, trees, and mountains pierce, which stretches out into the distance indefinitely. It is considered to be one of the masterpieces of the Romantic movement and one of its most representative works.
