A Waterfall in a Forest at Langhennersdorf
Christoph Nathe German
Not on view
Considered a precursor to the German Romanticists, Nathe composed this drawing to immerse the viewer in a dramatic landscape. The trees extend above the upper edge of the paper and the low vantage point affords only the slightest view of the top of the ravine, creating a feeling of solitude. The vertical format of the sheet emphasizes the downward rush of water.
