The Dents du Midi from Chesieres - Ferdinand Hodler

The Swiss massifs are preponderant in Ferdinand Hodler's symbolist paintings. These landscapes have always captivated the artist, who has depicted more than six hundred of them. In this work, he gradually gave up the importance of the foreground to depict the mountains head-on. He often depicts Swiss landscapes in his work, with paintings such as Léman and Savoyard Alps and Lanscape on lake Geneva.
