Landscape near Champery 1913

Ferdinand Hodler's 1913 painting "Landscape near Champery" exemplifies his signature style of Symbolism and Art Nouveau. Hodler is known for his distinct use of line and color to depict a sense of order and harmony within nature. The painting is characterized by its strong horizontal lines, which create a sense of stability and calm, and the vibrant blue sky, with white clouds, contrasting with the earth toned mountains and the valley below. This artwork is a notable example of Hodler's powerful and emotive representation of the Swiss landscape.
