An unusual vision, dear to Gaspar Friedrich, shows us a man seen from behind a window. Unusual because the man is unknown, the landscape is absent and time seems suspended. But if we succeed in identifying ourselves with this character, this condition of apparent poverty obliges us to discover the rich engraved details and facilitates a mental journey: the infinite is before us and calls us.
