拍品資料及來源
Having returned home to Berlin after the First World War, in a letter to his friend Georg Biermann from 6th August 1919 the artist described his emotional turmoil: "… I can return to Berlin, in order to throw myself ravenously into the long desired sea of colors. From time to time I still have dreams waking me at night, my nerves refusing to get used to the tranquillity of bourgeois existence. […] Finally I am completely free...working and bursting with energy" (quoted in Max Pechstein im Brücke-Museum (exhibition catalogue), Brücke-Museum, Berlin, 2001, p. 45, translated from German). With its bright coloration, coupled with a sense of beauty and tranquillity of this landscape, the present work is a remarkable example of this outburst of energy that characterised Pechstein’s work in the interwar period.
