Two Girls under an Umbrella 1910

"Two Girls under an Umbrella" is an oil painting by German Expressionist artist Ernst Ludwig Kirchner created in 1910. The work depicts two nude women standing in a landscape, with a red umbrella held overhead. Kirchner's bold use of color and distorted forms, characteristic of Die Brücke, are evident. The painting's dynamic composition and vivid colors convey a sense of energy and vibrancy. The figures' elongated limbs and simplified features evoke a sense of both sensuality and alienation, reflecting Kirchner's fascination with modern life.
