Contemplating the Moon ☰ Friedrich ☲ Canvas
Man and Woman Contemplating the Moon (1824, Mann und Frau in Betrachtung des Mondes) by Caspar David Friedrich depicts a woman and man in a forest at night. The woman rests her hand on the man's shoulder as they observe the waxing moon. Friedrich makes use of Rückenfigur (a rear-facing figure that is not the primary subject), allowing the viewer to place themselves into the scene as either of the two, or perhaps as the large uprooted tree standing as a third figure in the moonlight.

Stretched canvas art is created from a giclée print on canvas (instead of paper), and like a traditional painting, the canvas is hand-stretched over a solid wood frame. It can be mounted in a float frame, or displayed on its own. The sides of the canvas are finished in a solid color that complements the artwork, creating a modern masterpiece ready to hang on your wall, without a frame.
