About the piece

Created around 1917, this work by German Expressionist Otto Mueller depicts his signature subject—figures in harmony with nature. The piece uses a restricted palette of ochre, teal, and soft blue, applied with the artist's characteristic matte finish and emphasis on raw canvas texture, evoking a sense of primal simplicity and peace.
