Caspar David Friedrich

Heaven!!!
Earth is Heaven !
Nature is so inspiring.We're so blessed to be on this beautiful planet. 
Caspar David Friedrich is one of those painters whose drawings make you believe that how beautiful our Earth is. 
This painter is basically a romantic landscape painter.  His paintings show beauty, patience, sadness and destruction of nature.His paintings are worth looking at. 
He's considered as one of the most important German painters.
Friedrich was a prolific artist who produced more than 500 attributed works. In line with the Romantic ideals of his time, he intended his paintings to function as pure aesthetic statements, so he was cautious that the titles given to his work were not overly descriptive or evocative. It is likely that some of today's more literal titles, such as "The Stages of Life", were not given by the artist himself, but were instead adopted during one of the revivals of interest in     Friedrich. Complications arise when dating Friedrich's work, in part because he often did not directly name or date his canvases. He kept a carefully detailed notebook on his output, however, which has been used by scholars to tie paintings to their completion dates.
His paintings are masterpiece.
