Landscape full of trees 

"Landscape full of trees" was created by Franz Kobell who lived from 1749 to 1822. Kobell's landscapes emerged during a time when the concept of the 'picturesque' shaped artistic sensibilities. The late 18th and early 19th centuries saw a growing interest in nature, influenced by Enlightenment ideals and a burgeoning Romantic movement, that idealized the sublime and the natural world. Consider the role of landscape in shaping identity. For Kobell and his contemporaries, rendering nature was not merely an act of aesthetic representation; it was intertwined with notions of national identity, class, and power. The concept of owning land and property during the period was typically reserved for privileged classes. Kobell's landscapes are interesting because, while fitting into this tradition, they also offer an emotional escape, an opportunity to explore personal feelings in relation to the natural world. It invites reflection on how we relate to our surroundings, both physically and emotionally.
