About the piece

Painted in 1905, this evocative work by German modernist Paula Modersohn-Becker showcases her pioneering use of simplified forms and heavy texture. The composition captures a quiet moment of connection between a young girl and a rabbit, set against a rustic landscape of tall trees. Its warm, earthy palette and bold brushwork reflect the artist's deep ties to the Worpswede artist colony.
