À juste titre : dans une Allemagne o le romantisme en est à ses premiers balbutiements, Friedrich compose des paysages chaotiques brouillant les repères visuels du spectateur.

Caspar David Friedrich (1774-1840), a prominent German painter of the 19th century, was a vital figure in the Romantic movement.

Das abenteuerliche Leben der Sehnsuchtsbilder von Caspar David Friedrich - mitreißend erzählt von Florian Illies
Kein deutscher Maler löst solche Emotionen aus wie Caspar David Friedrich: Seine abendlichen Himmel sind bis heute Ikonen der Sehnsucht, er inspirierte Samuel Beckett zu Warten auf Godot und Walt Disney zu Bambi - Goethe jedoch machte die rätselhafte Melancholie seiner Bilder so wütend, dass er sie auf der Tischkante zerschlagen wollte.

With The Book of Barely Imagined Beings, Caspar Henderson offers readers a fascinating, beautifully produced modern-day menagerie. But whereas medieval bestiaries were often based on folklore and myth, the creatures that abound in Henderson's book-from the axolotl to the zebrafish-are, with one exception, very much with us, albeit sometimes in depleted numbers. The Book of Barely Imagined Beings transports readers to a world of real creatures that...
