OriginalWanderer above the Sea of Fog by Caspar David Friedrich (1818).
Reason
This painting was not promoted in 2006 due to some technical problems. Since then, those problems have been fixed. From what I have seen while looking over some art history things, the colors are now true to the original painting. This is one of the great paintings of the romantic era and it the painter's most famous work. (He is an FA.)
