The Hermit's Friend 1987

"The Hermit's Friend" (1987) by Hanno Karlhuber is a visually striking artwork that evokes a sense of otherworldliness. The painting depicts a celestial landscape of jagged rocks and a glowing orange sun, all set against a deep, star-filled sky. Karlhuber, known for his surreal and abstract imagery, uses the dramatic interplay of light and shadow to create a sense of mystery and depth in the scene. The artwork invites the viewer to contemplate the vastness of space and the potential for both isolation and connection within it. The title, "The Hermit's Friend," further enhances the mystical and introspective nature of the painting.
