Cloister Cemetery in the Snow

Published:

Description

Cloister Cemetery in the Snow was an oil painting done by the German Romanticist Caspar David Friedrich. The original was kept in the National Gallery of Berlin, but it was destroyed in a fire in 1945, and I was commissioned to re-paint it.

I'd never really seriously painted anything before this . . . (I was hired based on my work in other mediums) but I took the job because I was simply curious to see if I could actually do it, and I wanted to test my skill . . . ^_^;

Acrylic paint on an 18 by 24 canvas.

Completed in 2009.
