 Ferdinand Hodler. Landscapes
The landscape œuvre of Ferdinand Hodler (1853–1918) includes some of the most beautiful examples of the genre from the turn of the 20th century – from his famous images of the mountain peaks, valleys and lakes of the Berner Oberland and Lake Geneva to his subtle, detail studies of trees, streams and stones.
The question which naturally follows from this, is the importance of Hodler’s choice of standpoint to the contents and structure of his compositions.

Hodler was a remarkable innovator in the realm of Swiss and European art of the late 19

Ferdinand Hodler was, with Fdix Vallotton, the crucial Swiss painter of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
For all its participation in Hodler's theory of "parallelism," his portrait of Vibert is, in the end, a portrait.
An exactly contemporary description of the sculptor made without knowledge of Hodler's portrait makes the truth of the painting clear: 'An energetic man — a man of action: his eyes are round and wide awake — his lips are closed and pinched, some might say.
