William Ritschel was primarily known for his marine and coastal views of the Carmel area. A talented and successful early California artist, his paintings still evoke a strong emotional response. Using impressionistic lighting effects to create scenes that varied from quiet moonlit shores to dramatic, violent ocean storms, Ritschel had a remarkable ability to convey a particular mood or atmosphere. The present work showcases a fine array of new photographic images of paintings by Ritschel utilizing the Kvamme process of digital enhancement.
