Over het schilderij

Knud-Andreassen Baade (1808-1879) was born in Skjold in Norway. At first self-taught, he attended the Copenhagen Academy and became a student of Christopher Wilhelm Eckersberg (1783-1853). From 1829 to 1831, he stayed in Norway and became in 1839 the pupil of Johann Christian Dahl (1788-1857) who had a decisive influence on his art. He settled definitively in Munich in 1845 and became there a master of lyrical moonlight motifs. He was appointed a member of the Stockholm Academy in 1872.

This painting is a fine example of Baade's lyrical landscape by moonlight, a category of which he became a specialist after he settled in Munich in 1845. It shows a boat adrift at sea by moonlight, which conveys a sense of mystery. This composition is strongly reminiscent of the oeuvre of such Romantic painters as Caspar David Friedrich and Johann Christian Dahl. The high degree of finish, subject matter and relatively dark palette are typical of the late Romanticism.
