About the piece

Painted in 1910 by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, a leading figure of the German Expressionist movement 'Die Brücke,' this work is a masterclass in non-naturalistic color. The striking contrast between the figure's cool blue tones and the fiery oranges and yellows of the sun-drenched setting creates a rhythmic, energetic composition that feels remarkably modern.
