"Reefs by the Seashore" is a painting by Caspar David Friedrich, a prominent figure of the Romantic movement in 19th-century German art. This evocative oil painting depicts a moonlit seascape, with jagged rock formations rising from the water and a lone, distant moon in the sky. The cool, bluish-grey hues of the sky and water create a sense of solitude and mystery, characteristic of Friedrich's atmospheric landscapes, which often explore themes of nature, spirituality, and the sublime. The artist's interest in the power and grandeur of nature is evident in the stark beauty of the rocky coastline, illuminated by the soft glow of the moon.
