A wonderful scenery provides characters, which is the focal point of one of the most famous romantic paintings. A male figure with disheveled hair and his right hand supported on a stick, looking at the impressive mountain landscape. The overwhelming impact on an image is crucially due to its intricate structure. The male character in the rear view, together with the image viewer, looks like a majestic mountain peak extending from the mist. The image viewer and the characters in the picture stand on this sublime mountain landscape, which seems to extend almost infinitely. Like all of Caspar David Friedrich's paintings, this work is also explained in detail. The title is' Wanderer on the Fog Sea ', not explained by Caspar David Friedrich himself, it explains the content of the image. However, what is decisive is that this work directly attracted the influence of the audience - today certainly at the time of its creation.
