About the piece

Created in 1913, this work by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner is a quintessential example of German Expressionism. The painting features two women rendered with the sharp, jagged lines and vibrant, non-naturalistic colors typical of the Die Brücke movement, creating a sense of psychological intensity and modern urban energy.
