Title: MOONRISE OVER EUROPE: JC DAHL AND ROMANTIC LANDSCAPE
Description: "The Norwegian artist Johan Christian Dahl (1788-1857) was among the foremost European landscape painters of the nineteenth century. From 1823 he lived largely in Dresden, where he shared a house with the leading German Romantic landscapist, Caspar David Friedrich (1777-1840)." "Concentrating on Dahl, Friedrich and their northern European contemporaries, this book vividly explores a new fascination with the theme of moonlight shown by Romantic artists, writers and musicians during the period c. 1770-1860."--BOOK JACKET.
