Abendlandschaft 1925

Otto Mueller's "Abendlandschaft" (Evening Landscape) from 1925 portrays a serene forest scene, painted with a vibrant palette of greens, browns, and yellows. The artist, known for his bold use of color and expressive brushstrokes, captures the essence of the natural world through an abstract lens. This work is a prime example of Mueller's "New Objectivity" style, which emerged in the 1920s as a response to Expressionism, emphasizing a return to realism while retaining the evocative power of color and form. "Abendlandschaft" now resides in the Kunstforum Ostdeutsche Galerie (KOG) in Regensburg, Germany.
