DiaporamaWanderer in the Storm
1835
43.0 x 57.0 cm
Metropolitan Museum of Art
The figure of a wanderer in an untamed natural setting personified restless yearning for the German Romantics. Man’s loneliness and nature’s transience, themes clearly stated in this picture, find direct parallels in the works of the painter Caspar David Friedrich and the composer Franz Schubert, notably his song cycle Die Winterreise, or Winter Journey (1827).
Julius Von Leypold (? – ?)
Carl Julius von Leypold (1806-1874) was a German Romantic landscape painter best known for his evocative "Wanderer in the Storm." Influenced by Caspar David Friedrich and Johan Christian Dahl, his atmospheric paintings capture themes of solitude and nature's power.
