Nosferatu, Prince of the Night (Nosferatu, Phantom der Nacht -1978)

German director Werner Herzog directs the remake of Nosferatu 1922, directed by another famous countryman, Friedrich Wilhelm Murnau.

Staying on the German cultural tradition of the period, he used Murnau Expressionist art to put on Stoker's novel.

Herzog draws romantic art (also born in Germany) for the construction of entire sequences, particularly inspired by the paintings of Caspar David Friedrich. The artist often depicts figures shooting from behind, immersed in contemplation of the landscape. An essential characteristic of romantic art is the relationship between the individual and the cosmos. The nature looming in the paintings of Friedrich and is perceived as a place of meditation, the individual discovers himself through their spiritual experience.
