Sagot :

Your answer is D: A German landscape artist who painted rocky seacoasts and dark forests. 

The correct answer is D. Caspar David Friedrich (1774-1840) was a German painter, graphic artist and drawer. He is today considered the most important artist of the German early Romantic period. Frederick's main works break with the traditions of landscape painting of Baroque and Classicism in a revolutionary manner. The thematic and motivational canon of these pictures combines landscape and religion, preferably to allegories of loneliness, death, otherworldly ideas and hopes of salvation.
