Figure with White Lake 1964

"Figure with White Lake" is a 1964 painting by American artist Elmer Bischoff, known for his figurative and landscape works. This painting displays Bischoff's signature style, using thick impasto brushstrokes and a muted color palette to depict a lone nude figure standing on a beach, facing the viewer. The figure stands against a backdrop of a distant shoreline and a large rocky outcropping. The painting’s composition, color, and brushwork create a sense of isolation and contemplation, highlighting the figure’s connection to the vastness of the natural world.
