From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mountain Landscape with Rainbow (1810) (German: Gebirgslandschaft mit Regenbogen), is an oil painting by the German Romantic artist Caspar David Friedrich. Depicting a traveler who has stopped to view a mountainous landscape with a rainbow shining above, the painting was inspired by Friedrich's travels through Germany and along the shores of the Baltic Sea in 1809. Influenced by the romantic values of subjective experience, Friedrich portrays a figure enraptured by the sublimity of nature.[1]
