Question

In a painting by this artist, a funeral procession walks among dead trees and towards the title ruined Abbey in the Oakwood. This artist, who wore a wispy beard to hide an attempt to slit his own throat, depicted his wife Caroline looking out an open window at a ship’s mast. Two women sit on rocks and look at a pair of men in one of this artist’s many paintings of moonrises featuring rückenfigurs (“ROOK-in-fee-GOORS”). This artist may have been inspired by his brother’s drowning in a frozen moat to depict an icy landscape with jagged angles in Sea of Ice. The title figure of a painting by this artist holds a cane with his back to the viewer as he reaches a viewpoint in the Elbe Mountains. For 10 points, name this German Romantic painter of Wanderer Above the Sea of Fog. ■END■
