Blick auf die Heiligenstädter Pfarrkirche c. 1905

Carl Moll made this painting of the Heiligenstadt Parish Church, we don’t know exactly when, but look at the way he approached this scene, it's all about the process. The thick paint captures the physicality of the medium, the texture is palpable, inviting you to reach out and touch the canvas. The colour palette is restrained, mostly greens and browns, but within that, there’s so much variation. Look at the lower left, the way the light hits the trees, turning them into shimmering forms. This reminds me of other painters who saw nature not as something fixed but as an ever-changing process, like Monet, for example. But Moll’s approach is different. He's not just capturing the light, but also the underlying structure of the landscape. He invites us to see the world as a dynamic, evolving place, full of endless possibilities.
