About this work

This painting by Christian Landenberger, dated 1913 and titled Badender Knabe (Dingelsdorf), shows a seated young male figure seen from behind, his bare back turned toward the viewer as he gazes across a shimmering lake. Loose, textured brushwork renders the sunlit water, the pebbled shore, and tall reeds in the foreground, with a line of trees and a distant hillside along the far bank.
