He often painted these scenes with a warm color scheme rather than the blue-green colors we're more familiar with.
Jacobsen's moonlit scenes center on the glow of the moon, with sparkling firelight in the human world.
The outer edges of the composition are softened and darkened, and much of the effect comes from simple silhouettes.

These are really beautiful. I'd love to learn how to apply this technique.
I am looking at the third example. What is the progression of values of the moonlight reflected on the water? It appears that the lights get darker in the distance even though they are closer to the light source. And do the shadows get darker too?
Gosh these are beautiful, Thank you.
