Rare unique German expressionist woman portrait painting, signed Kirchner

Description: FINE ART AUCTION Item descriptionPortrait of a woman The offered artwork is tempera and oil painting depicting a portrait of a young woman, signed Kirchner, in the lower margin of the artwork and Gallery stamped on verso. Ernst Ludwig Kirchner was a driving force in the Die Brücke group that flourished in Dresden and Berlin, and he has come to be seen as one of the most talented and influential of Germany's Expressionists. Motivated by the same anxieties that gripped the movement as a whole - fears about humanity's place in the modern world, its lost feelings of spirituality and authenticity - Kirchner had conflicting attitudes to the past and present. The human figure was central to Kirchner's art. It was vital to the pictures that took his studio as their backdrop - pictures in which he captured models posing as well as aspects of his bohemian life. An admirer of Albrecht Dürer, he revived the old art of woodblock printing, and saw himself in the German tradition, yet he rejected academic styles and was inspired by the modern city. After the war, illness drove him to settle in Davos, Switzerland, where he painted many landscapes, and, ultimately, he found himself ostracized from mainstream German art.
