Thun, Stockhornkette 1910

Ferdinand Hodler's 1910 landscape painting "Thun, Stockhornkette" exemplifies his signature style, characterized by simplified forms and flattened perspective. This piece, depicting a tranquil lake with distant mountains, showcases Hodler's fascination with the Swiss landscape. The use of muted colors and elongated lines creates a sense of serene stillness, while the dramatic mountain range in the background adds a touch of grandeur. Hodler's works, often associated with Symbolism, evoke a sense of harmony and balance between nature and humanity.
