Gaukler 1902 - 1918

"Gaukler" (Jester), a woodcut print created by German artist Maria Uhden between 1902 and 1918, depicts two figures in a stylized, blocky form. The print likely portrays a scene from a circus or traveling show with a tent, a wagon, and a jester lying on the ground with another figure standing over them. The stark black and white contrasts and geometric forms evoke a sense of Expressionism, a movement that emphasized emotional expression over realism. Uhden's work is often associated with this artistic movement, and "Gaukler" is a notable example of her artistic style.
