Artist, German, born 1938

The image shows a wide, aerial view of a waterscape with a horizon dividing the frame. The water appears calm and some vegetation is visible on the thin line that marks the horizon. The image is in black and white, creating a serene and subtle monochromatic palette. The water shows gentle ripples and there are sparse reeds or grasses poking through the surface. In the distance, there is a lone figure, possibly an animal, against the skyline. The scene conveys a sense of stillness and simplicity in both composition and tone.
