About the piece
Painted in 1913, this work by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner captures fellow Die Brücke artists Erich Heckel and Otto Mueller in a moment of quiet competition. The composition is charged with the high-contrast palette and jagged, rhythmic brushwork characteristic of German Expressionism, offering a raw and intimate glimpse into the avant-garde circle.
