On the Beach 1914

"On the Beach" (1914) is a woodcut by German artist Otto Lange, known for his Expressionist style. The black and white print depicts a scene of figures walking along a beach path towards a row of boats. The simplified forms and bold lines are characteristic of Lange's style, highlighting the drama of the scene. The composition is balanced by the contrast between the dark figures and the lighter background, and the use of diagonal lines creates a sense of movement and depth.
