About the piece
Painted in 1914 by German Expressionist August Macke, 'Turkish Café' reflects the artist's fascination with light and color following his influential trip to Tunisia. The composition uses bold, flat blocks of primary color and simplified shapes to create a sense of radiant heat and still contemplation, characteristic of the Der Blaue Reiter movement.
