I picked up "Casper David Friedrich and the Subject of Landscape" from the library a couple of days ago and in one section the author accompanied a selection of Friedrich's landscapes that featured a subject(s) looking out onto the landscape with this quote:

"Who has turned us round like this so that we,
whatever we do, have the bearing of
someone who's going away?"

- Rainer Maria Rilke
