About the piece
Painted in 1911, this vibrant work by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner is a quintessential example of the Die Brücke movement. The composition features dancers in interlocking, rhythmic poses, defined by Kirchner's signature jagged outlines and a non-naturalistic color palette that emphasizes emotional intensity and modern vitality over literal representation.
