Italienische Landschaft (Italian Landscape)
1966
A sweeping Italian landscape rendered in Richter's signature photo-painterly style, where lush rolling hills and verdant scenery are simultaneously vivid and elusive. The image appears to emerge from a soft blur, as though glimpsed through a moving window or a fading memory, blending photographic realism with painterly abstraction. Richter's masterful manipulation of focus and depth transforms an ordinary scenic view into a meditation on perception, representation, and the nature of seeing itself.
