19th Century Moonlit Landscape with Rowboat, Oil on Wood Panel
Located in Stockholm, SE
Louis Douzette was a prominent German landscape painter whose artistic practice bridged late Romanticism and early Naturalism. He became especially known for his evocative nocturnal scenes illuminated by moonlight, a recurring subject that defined his mature style. These works reveal a fascination with the interplay of night sky, reflected water, and atmospheric tone. Often described as lyrical or meditative, they draw the viewer into a quiet world of natural reflection and stillness.
Douzette’s early training in Berlin under the marine painter Hermann Eschke grounded him in Romantic landscape traditions, but he soon developed his own voice. He found deep inspiration in the moonlit river scenes of Dutch Golden Age painters such as Aert van der Neer and Jacob van Ruisdael. His commitment to nocturnes emerged in the 1860s, a theme he returned to with increasing focus throughout his career. By the late 1870s, exposure to the Barbizon School and plein-air techniques enriched his approach, infusing his nightscapes with greater realism and atmospheric complexity. This synthesis of romantic mood and naturalist observation defines much of his later output.
The present work, Moonlit Landscape with Rowboat, captures the artist’s refined handling of tone and light on an unusually intimate scale. Measuring just over 13 by 17 centimetres, the panel presents a tranquil night scene in exquisite detail. A full moon, partially veiled by drifting clouds, casts its reflection over the surface of a river. The silver light falls across the water in rhythmic bands, leading the eye toward a gently moored rowboat. A wooded shoreline flanks the composition on the right, while the distant horizon reveals faint silhouettes of trees beneath a softly glowing sky.
Despite the painting’s modest format, it conveys a remarkable sense of depth and atmosphere. The sky is built with expressive, layered brushwork that suggests subtle variations in cloud density and moonlight diffusion. The reflective water is handled with delicacy, echoing the sky’s luminosity in more muted, rippling form. Dark foliage anchors the composition without overpowering it, creating a gentle contrast that enhances the nocturnal glow. The rowboat, placed with quiet purpose, introduces a human element without breaking the silence of the scene.
Douzette’s contribution to 19th-century German painting...

Painting is an art form that has spanned innumerable cultures, with artists using the medium to tell stories, explore and communicate ideas and express themselves. To bring abstract paintings, landscape paintings, still-life paintings and other original paintings into your home is to celebrate and share in the long tradition of this discipline.
When we look at paintings, particularly those that originated in the past, we learn about history, other cultures and countries of the world. Like every other work of art, paintings — whether they are contemporary creations or works that were made during the 19th century — can often help us clearly see and understand the world around us in a meaningful and interesting way.
Cave walls were the canvases for what were arguably the world’s first landscape paintings, which depict natural scenery through art. Portrait paintings and drawings, which, along with sculpture, were how someone’s appearance was recorded prior to the advent of photography, are at least as old as Ancient Egypt. In the Netherlands, landscapes were a major theme for painters as early as the 1500s. Later, artists in Greece, Rome and elsewhere created vast wall paintings to decorate stately homes, churches and tombs.
Today, creating a wall of art is a wonderful way to enhance your space, showcase beautiful pieces and tie an interior design together.
No matter your preference, whether you favor Post-Impressionist paintings, animal paintings, Surrealism, Pop art or another movement or specific period, arranging art on a blank wall allows you to evoke emotions in a room while also showing off your tastes and interests. A symmetrical wall arrangement may comprise a grid of four to six pieces or, for an odd number of works, a horizontal row. Asymmetrical arrangements, which may be small clusters of art or large, salon-style gallery walls, have a more collected and eclectic feel.
Download the 1stDibs app, which includes a handy “View on Wall” feature that allows you to see how a particular artwork will look on a particular wall, and read about how to arrange wall art. And if you’re searching for the perfect palette for your interior design project, what better place to turn than to the art world’s masters of color?
On 1stDibs, you’ll find an expansive collection of paintings and other fine art for your home or office. Browse abstract paintings, portrait paintings, paintings by emerging artists and more today.
