Fanny Churberg's (1845-1892) way of seeing nature was very
different from the conventional Düsseldorf idyll.
I have looked
at the sultry heat - at the calm before a storm - at the whole of nature
so glowingly fresh and tranquil (a picture of love).
For Fanny Churberg nature was a battlefield for the never-ending struggle of
powerful emotions and atmospheres. Nature was something altogether
too great for man to have any part in it. Man in Churberg's landscapes,
on the rare occasions that he is included, is a trivial, meaningless part
of a great whole.
