1913, Erich Heckel, Landscape in Holstein -- Stadel Museum (Frankfurt)
From the museum label: In the year of the dissolution of the art group Brücke, Heckel created this impressive landscape of the Flensburg Fjord. In sweeping strokes, he captured the lush green of the fields, bushes and trees under a turbulent sky. The painting proves his desire to convey moods and feelings through forms and motifs. The angular shapes and systematic brushwork herald another development in Heckel's oeuvre: they are reminiscent of crystalline structures that the artist later used to exaggerate reality.
