“Vividly painted flowers occupy pride of place within Nolde’s oeuvre. His delicate watercolours of flowers on Japan paper perfectly embody his desire to create art that blossomed as organically as nature did. Nolde’s first important pictures date from 1906 and depict the flowers and garden motifs that he had been magnetically drawn to when living in Als Island. As Nolde sought to capture the blooming flowers in their riot of colours, he developed what was to become his own inimitable use of expressive colour, which would lead to an invitation to join the influential Die Brücke group of painters.”
