By the time Balke executed this work, dated 1853 at the lower right, the North Cape had become a signature image. He employed his materials cannily: the smooth paper support is well suited to the flatly applied, gradated tones of the sky, which is clear, save for the quickly worked clouds that form a dome with the moon as its keystone. The cape’s massif appears as a single broad horizontal stroke of dark gray paint, with visible brush marks that contribute a subtle note of texture. This restraint was abandoned through the use of bolder impasto for the snowy crags and the surface of the water.
