Artist, German, born 1938

The image shows a monochromatic view of a marshland. In the foreground, tall, slender grasses grow from the water. A waterway winds through the grasses towards a distant horizon. The horizon blends into the grassland and disappears into a light sky. The scene is finely detailed, highlighting the delicate grass blades. The color palette consists of black, white, and gray tones, creating a tranquil yet stark scene.
