Wanderer & Fantasy: Cumpleaños ¡muy (pero muy) feliz!

It has passed one year since this blog adopted the current name.

I owe a big "THANKS" to all of you, who might have been struggling in Google results in finding it among 5000 pages of Schubert's Wanderer Fantasy (LOL) and also those who even use search grammar to configure, like "-Schubert", but as Schubert is also mentioned quite often in this blog, neither does the method serve a lot 囧

So, thank you all for visiting back to this muggle-born's self-talking blog with an address probably too long!

For this first anniversary, I have been preparing an album of Caspar David Friedrich.

I have just found that his works transmit exactly the spirit I worship: That of a traveler - "wanderer", with fantasy into its perfection, while maintaining as an outsider/observer... (BTW, he is also Virgo - Isn't it quite logical?!)

The album collects 53 paintings used by around 180 CDs, which might be interesting if you are classical music listeners.

- Each painting is named by its original title in German.
- Each CD cover is provided with the bar-code so it might be easier to find.

(I am very grateful to a collage list and Wikipedia, where I borrowed most of the references)

Almost all the covers are grouped by their original paintings (leading each group). However, there are still some ones that I cannot find by now, NINE in total (left), put in the end of the album.

If you happen to know any of them, please let me know and thank you in advance for sharing your knowledge and information!

As well as other mistakes that I might have made, as I don't know German ~~(excuse!)~~ and I haven't had time to check every item ~~(real reason!)~~

And, if you know more covers using C. D. Friedrich's paintings, please also leave a comment so I can update the collage.

The artist should not only paint what he sees before him, but also what he sees in himself... (more here)

Dosen't it link you to Herinrich Neuhaus's famous "Не ищите себя в музыке, а найдите эту музыку в себе" : )

I really believe in RP, for it rewards me often when I really "work" to "accumulate" - Thus, on the other hand, today, I have had a small harvest ^v^ Good news and things one after another:
