Albert Leopold Rheinemann produced rich landscapes imbued with a sense of nature’s power over man. He was a painter in the romantic tradition and studied under the great, Hans Fredrik Gude (1825-1903). Many of his works depict coastal scenes with fierce waves crashing over jagged outcrops. But, like Gude, he was equally adept at capturing a calm sea and a picturesque fishing village.
