Drei Kokotten bei Nacht 1914

"Drei Kokotten bei Nacht" (1914) is an etching by German Expressionist artist Ernst Ludwig Kirchner. The artwork, currently housed in the Städel Museum, depicts three figures with exaggerated features and simplified forms, capturing the stark reality of urban life. Kirchner's signature style is evident in the bold lines and angularity, which convey a sense of unease and tension. The figures are depicted in a dark and shadowy setting, highlighting the theme of alienation and the darker side of modernity.
