About the artwork

In the distant depths of autumn, when nature unfolds its colour palette and bathes the land in a firework of colours, a copper beech sits majestically enthroned near Lake Forggensee in the enchanting Allgäu, Bavaria. Its canopy, a sea of russet and golden hues, shimmers in the soft light of the setting sun.
Like a solitaire, this tree rises, proud and sublime, in the midst of the landscape. Its roots reach deep into the bosom of the earth, as if it preserves the secrets of times past. The centuries-old bark tells stories of past generations that found refuge under its protection.
The wind breathes tenderly through its branches, and it is as if the copper beech whispers gentle melodies - songs of past spring blossoms, of summer dreams and now of impending hibernation. Its leaves dance in the autumn wind as if celebrating life in all its transience.
This homemade photo captures a fleeting moment, a harmony of nature so precious in its uniqueness. It is a window into another world, a connection with nature and its wonders.
Looking at this photo awakens a longing for peace and harmony with the world. It makes us pause in wonder and be grateful for the beauty that surrounds us. The copper beech near Rieden am Forggensee is not just a tree, but a symbol of the magic of nature and the bond between man and his environment - a timeless masterpiece of creation, captured for eternity.
