About the piece

Painted in 1908, this early work by August Macke showcases his mastery of light and color within an Impressionist framework. The scene depicts a woman in a dark dress seated on a lush green lawn, surrounded by sun-drenched foliage and blooming orange marigolds. A garden path leads the eye through textured brushwork toward distant architectural silhouettes under a soft, pale sky.
