About the piece
Painted in 1917, 'The Nurse' showcases Ernst Ludwig Kirchner's mastery of the Die Brücke style. The central figure is rendered with mask-like features and set against a highly energized, non-naturalistic background of mountain-like shapes and dramatic skies, reflecting the psychological tension of the era.
