About the piece

Created in 1912, 'Spring' is a hallmark of Alexej von Jawlensky's Expressionist style. The work utilizes a warm, saturated palette of pinks, yellows, and purples, combined with thick, rhythmic outlines to transform a simple portrait into a powerful study of light and emotional resonance.
