Interpretations of Painting: Caspar David Friedrick’s Walk at Dusk, c. 1830–1835

Prompt:
This is the paper in which you pull your ideas together and ask the big question: What does this painting mean? What do I think the artist is trying to say in it? Is it a straightforward meaning, or is it complex and contradictory? You are engaging in an act of interpretation, and how you interpret this painting will not necessarily be similar to anyone else’s. And yes, I am asking you what you, as an individual, think it means. Many interpretations will be possible for your image, but your grade will be based on how well you justify your interpretation with visual evidence from the painting and comparisons to it.

Instruction:
Back up interpretations with evidence! For example the artist’s life expereinces,his other paintings, the German Romanticism movement. I will provide my previous essays on the same painting and you can use ideas or evidence from these(but not too much). Focus on the interpretation itself, don’t include too many citations.
