Woman in front of a large illuminated window 

August Macke's "Woman in front of a large illuminated window" is a striking example of early 20th-century German Expressionism, demonstrating Macke's fascination with color and form. The painting depicts a woman, standing in profile, facing an expansive window that appears to be filled with light. The scene is fragmented, with the woman's figure and the window dominating the composition. The surrounding space is filled with geometric shapes and vibrant colors, creating a dynamic and expressive scene that reflects the artistic climate of the time. Macke's use of bold lines and flattened planes evokes a sense of energy and movement, reflecting the burgeoning modern world.
