Description
English: In his landscapes, Courbet often painted his native countryside in eastern France – as in this painting of a deep-blue spring in the region of Ornans. Courbet avoided romantic and picturesque views, favouring a more realistic and unsentimental portrayal of nature. His interest in geology is expressed in his fascination for depicting rough rock surfaces and eroding cliffs. In this painting, the hard work of man is also present – above the mouth of the cave, a woodsman is chopping down a mighty tree.
Svenska: I sina landskap skildrade Courbet ofta sin hembygd i östra Frankrike – så också i den här målningen av en djupblå källa i trakten av Ornans. Courbet undvek alla romantiska och pittoreska vyer för att istället skildra naturen på ett mer realistiskt och osentimentalt vis. Hans intresse för geologi kommer till uttryck i en förkärlek för skrovliga stenytor och vittrande klippor. I den här målningen framträder också det mänskliga slitet i naturen – ovanför grottöppningen syns en skogshuggare i färd med att fälla ett väldigt träd.
