Max Röder’s Magical Landscapes

Max Röder (1866 – 1947) was a German landscape artist and architectural painter who spent much of his life working Rome. His work has been compared to that of Arnold Böcklin, but there is much less available about Röder today. The most I was able to find about him was through a translated Wikipedia page.

[He] is considered to be a representative of a classical, coloristic and impressionistic as well as poetic landscape painting. He knew how to give his landscapes a heroic, romantic and symbolist mood. He preferred to create vedute of villas in Rome and the Albanian Mountains. He composed some landscapes freely from Italian models, others – such as a view of Mount Etna from Augustaoff – he painted true to nature.

There are a few of his works available online, but most of them are low quality, which is a shame, since there appears to be great detail within them.
