Amalfi
Fritz Bamberger captures the dramatic cliffs of Amalfi, Italy, in this delicate sketch, framing the view with tall, slender trees on the left. As a German landscape painter influenced by Romanticism, he uses fine, airy lines to map out the cascading buildings clinging to the rugged coastline. It feels like a page from a travel diary, freezing a moment of Mediterranean beauty before any paint was applied. The handwritten 'Amalfi' in the bottom corner anchors this breezy study to a very specific, sun-drenched destination.
