Caspar David Friedrich - 2024 ACF Fall

Question

One work by this artist is thought to have been inspired by his 13-year-old brother drowning in a frozen moat. For 10 points each:

[10h] Name this painter of The Sea of Ice. Many of this artist’s works feature a central figure facing away from the viewer in a device called Rückenfigur (“ROOK-in-fee-GOOR”).

ANSWER: Caspar David Friedrich

[10m] One of these people appears in a Friedrich painting where the title figure carries a walking stick and looks upon a mountainous landscape. That painting is partially titled for one of these people above a “sea of fog.”

ANSWER: wanderers [accept Wanderer above the Sea of Fog or Der Wanderer über dem Nebelmeer; accept Wanderer above the Mist or Mountaineer in a Misty Landscape; reject synonyms like “travelers”]

[10e] Friedrich’s use of Rückenfigur may have inspired this artist’s Two Human Beings (The Lonely Ones). This Norwegian artist also painted The Scream.
