Norwegian Winter Landscape with an Elk and a Brown Bear 

This realistic depiction of a brown bear standing over a slain elk in a snowy forest is a prime example of German artist Richard Friese's work. His depictions of wildlife, particularly in hunting scenes, are known for their attention to detail and naturalism. The painting showcases Friese's skill in capturing the cold, harsh beauty of a winter landscape while simultaneously conveying the raw power and instinctual nature of the animal world. The use of light and shadow is particularly effective in bringing depth and realism to the scene, enhancing the viewer's connection to the untamed wilderness.
