Waldhaus (House in the Woods)
A misty, atmospheric depiction of a solitary house nestled within a dense forest, rendered with Richter's signature photorealistic yet painterly technique that blurs the boundary between photography and painting. The soft, diffused tones of grey and green evoke a sense of quiet isolation and melancholy, as the structure is partially consumed by the surrounding trees. The work reflects Richter's enduring exploration of memory, perception, and the tension between clarity and obscurity.
