German art – At Sunnyside – Where Truth and Beauty Meet

Emil Nolde: Blaue Stiefmütterchen

“There is silver blue, sky blue and thunder blue. Every colour holds within it a soul, which makes me happy or repels me, and which acts as a stimulus. To a person who has no art in him, colours are colours, tones tones…and that is all. All their consequences for the human spirit, which range…

Franz Marc: Gemsen

“After the artist’s death on the Western Front in 1916, Marc’s widow and organizer of his estate described this work as follows: ‘In front of a stormy sky lightly tinged from purple to rusty red, draped with small clouds, blue crags with different shading (ultramarine) in the foreground, two green chamois are jumping across blue…

August Macke: Leute am blauen See

“Although the motif is generic, the painting reflects the artist’s situation during his vacation on Lake Thun, where he stayed from late September 1913 to spring 1914. “People at the Blue Lake” was created during this particularly happy time for the Macke couple. One year later, Macke, only 27 years old, died on the battlefield…

Emil Nolde: Blaue und gelbe Blüten

“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…

Caspar David Friedrich: Woman at a Window

“This painting employs the motif of the Rückenfigur, or a figure seen from behind, which is commonly associated with Friedrich who notoriously made use of this compositional device in many of his pieces. The Rückenfigur serves as a surrogate for the viewer to experience what they are witnessing.[3] In this painting, the viewer is invited to look…

Max Ernst: Calme

“Arizona reappears as a motif throughout Ernst’s oeuvre, serving as blank canvas upon which the artist was able to project his psychological frame of mind. His grattages from the interwar period had depicted an imaginary Arizona landscape that appeared bleak and ravaged, reflecting Ernst’s traumatized state of mind after having served in World War I….

Emil Nolde: Blumen

Emil Nolde (born Hans Emil Hansen; 7 August 1867 – 13 April 1956) was a German-Danish painter and printmaker. He was one of the first Expressionists, a member of Die Brücke, and was one of the first oil painting and watercolor painters of the early 20th century to explore color. He is known for his…

Teasdale, Tin, and Memley: There Will Come Soft Rain, Part II

“There Will Come Soft Rains” by Sara Teasdale There will come soft rains and the smell of the ground, And swallows circling with their shimmering sound; And frogs in the pools singing at night, And wild plum-trees in tremulous white; Robins will wear their feathery fire Whistling their whims on a low fence-wire; And not…

“The present painting is part of a group of rhythmic, wooded landscapes that Klee made in 1920, the year after he first began working in oil….The dominant red and brown tonalities reflect the colors of the fall foliage, while the title of the painting–Feier und Untergang (Celebration and Decline)–evokes the bounty of the harvest followed…

“Painted in 1909, Sonnenuntergang (Sunset) is one of the earliest of Nolde’s celebrated seascapes… For Nolde, who grew up on the coast and was to spend almost all his life near the ocean, the sea was an imposing and powerful presence, an elemental force of nature that was an important and recurrent feature of both…

Franz Marc: The Dream (1912)

“…the allegory represented by The Dream is not overly explicit. As Klaus Lankheit suggests, it is more of a poetic image without any rational meaning. The scene takes place in the middle of the night, as indicated by the marked blackness of the background sky. The yellow house on the left may symbolise the real…

Enya: How Can I Keep From Singing?

“Founded on an interest in folk art and in particular in the Bavarian folk tradition of Hinterglasmalerei or under-glass painting that Kandinsky and Gabrielle Münter had discovered in Murnau, Kandinsky, in addition to trying the technique himself, began to adopt many of the glass painter’s themes and subject matter in his own art. Adopting their…
