Alfred Bocklin (1827-1901) was a swiss symbolist painter. The photo on top is one I took of his painting in the Philadelphia Museum of Art, so it's a crappy pic...I agree. The ones underneath are his works, googled of course. I like his work, didn't know why before until the class when Professor Hullot-Kentor spoke of being able to see the dynamic movement of the gesture in a painting, I didn't really understand until I looked at Bocklin's paintings again and realized that what drew me to them was that I created a narrative for each one according to the gestures. And even though his paintings are largely static, he has a lot of violence in his work.
