Ferdinand Hodler (1853-1918) was a Swiss symbolist painter known primarily for his enigmatic depictions of people and surrealist scenes, but he also produced striking realist land and waterscapes. His artwork aims to penetrate the mysteries of the natural order, universe, and our own minds. The three paintings below, which are the continuation of my previous post Ferdinand Hodler: Symbolism I, present Hodler’s curious philosophy, and ideas of life renewal and spring.
