An exhibition of this kind is long overdue in Berlin, if only by virtue of the fact that the numerous acquisitions and public exhibitions that occurred in the Prussian capital played a considerable part in fostering the artist's initial renown during his own lifetime, and because the Nationalgalerie houses one of the world’s largest collections of Friedrich’s paintings.

In 2024, Caspar David Friedrich’s anniversary year, the Berlin exhibition will form part of a series of thematically distinct exhibitions held at the Hamburger Kunsthalle, the Alte Nationalgalerie Berlin, and the Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden.
