About the piece
Created in 1901, this work by German artist Paula Modersohn-Becker illustrates three boys by a canal using a bold, simplified technique. The painting is a significant example of early Expressionism, featuring thick brushwork and a rich green and earthy palette that emphasizes the raw connection between the human figure and the rural landscape.
