Hercules Seghers' work seen by Werner Herzog
Here, iconic filmmaker Werner Herzog reflects on ‘Hearsay of the Soul’ (2012), a meditative video installation paying tribute to 17th-century Dutch artist Hercules Seghers. Through a four-channel digital projection of Segers’s vast, dreamlike landscapes, accompanied by the haunting music of Ernst Reijseger, Herzog evokes deep emotional resonance—anger, joy, fear, and solitude.
