1915, Emil Nolde, Women in a Garden -- National Gallery of Ireland (Dublin)
From the museum label: Emil Nolde spent most of 1915 at his cottage on the island of Alsen. It was there that he painted this brilliantly coloured garden scene. The artist's wife, Ada, modelled for the figure standing on the path at the right. In 1926, the Städel, Frankfurt, acquired this painting for its collection. However, in 1937, it was one of many artworks confiscated from the museum by the Nazi regime, which classified the work of Nolde, and other German Expressionists, as 'Entartete Kunst' (Degenerate Art).
