The way on the water 

"The way on the water" is a charcoal drawing by German Expressionist artist August Macke. The drawing depicts a woman with an umbrella standing on a pathway overlooking a body of water with boats and other figures. The scene is rendered in stark black and white, with bold strokes and simplified forms, characteristic of Macke's early style. The composition is dynamic, with the woman's figure leading the eye into the scene. Macke, known for his vibrant colors and innovative use of form, utilized this stark black and white drawing to emphasize the mood and atmosphere of the scene.
