German Expressionism was a groundbreaking art movement that emerged in the early 20th century, characterized by its bold and expressive style. Artists sought to convey intense emotions and explore the human psyche through their works, often using vibrant colors and distorted forms. One notable piece from this period is "A Tower of Blue Horses" by Franz Marc, painted in 1913. This oil on canvas masterpiece showcases Marc's fascination with animals and his use of vivid blue hues to create a dreamlike atmosphere. In contrast, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner's "Self Portrait" from 1911 captures the artist's introspective nature. Executed in pencil and watercolor on paper, this work reveals Kirchner's skillful draftsmanship as he depicts himself with piercing eyes and an air of contemplation. Another prominent figure within German Expressionism was Emil Nolde, known for his striking use of color. His "Reclining Woman in Red Trousers and Standing Female Nude, " created in 1912 using gouache technique, portrays two female figures intertwined against a background filled with vibrant reds. The movement also explored themes of youth and innocence as seen in Egon Schiele's "Nude Boy Standing; Stehender Knabenakt. " Painted with oil on canvas, this piece captures the raw vulnerability of adolescence through Schiele's distinctive angular lines. Furthermore, Wassily Kandinsky delved into abstract expressionism with his work "Stelle della strada" from 1912. Using ink and watercolor on paper, Kandinsky creates a dynamic composition filled with geometric shapes that seem to dance across the page. Expressionist artists were not limited to self-portraits but also depicted others such as Oskar Kokoschka did in his portrait titled "Georg Brandes" (1883). With oil on canvas medium used here shows Kokoschka’s ability to capture character while employing bold brushstrokes.
