Rainy Day on the Beach (Regentag am Strande) 1918

"Rainy Day on the Beach" (Regentag am Strande), a 1918 woodcut by Lyonel Feininger, captures a stark and geometric interpretation of a rainy day on a beach. The image, rendered in black and white, features simplified figures walking along a shoreline with the sea in the background. The artist's use of strong lines and bold shapes evokes a sense of movement and the harshness of the weather. Feininger's style is characterized by its abstraction and use of geometric forms, which places this artwork firmly within the Expressionist movement.
