Davos in Summer 1925

Ernst Ludwig Kirchner's "Davos in Summer" (1925) is a vibrant depiction of the Swiss town of Davos, showcasing the artist's signature Expressionist style. The painting, characterized by bold colors and angular forms, captures the town nestled in the Alps. The scene is dominated by a church spire, a prominent feature in the town's landscape, and is surrounded by colorful buildings that seem to rise up the mountainside. The dynamic composition and rich palette create a sense of energy and vibrancy, reflecting Kirchner's fascination with the Swiss landscape and its natural beauty.
