Lange especially loved to depict nature in solemn tranquillity and sunny clarity, ... whereby the combination of water and forest offered new attractions. ..." and Seubert (1878) adds "... Lange ... but always spoke to the mind; he worked more through light and colour than through form, more charming than powerful. ...", atmospheric, slightly impasto landscape painting, oil on card, mounted on further card slightly protruding at the sides, signed and dated "Julius Lange 1864" lower left, old label on the reverse "A.
