About the piece

Created in 1913, this landscape by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner captures the raw energy of the Baltic shoreline. Using a signature Expressionist palette of saturated ochre and vivid blues, Kirchner transforms the coastal scene into a dynamic composition of gestural brushwork and striking contrast, reflecting his summer retreats to the island of Fehmarn.
