Stormy Night / Sturmwind

Marianne von Werefkin (Russia, 1860 - 1938, Switzerland) was student of Ilja Repin. She went with Alexej von Jawlenski to Muenich later to Murna. Had significant influence on the set-up of Die Blaue Reiter (Kandinski ea). In the period around WW-I she painted in bright, expressionistic style, like this Sturmwind / Stormy Night from 1917-1917.
