A Man and a Woman 1909

"A Man and a Woman" is a 1909 painting by Oluf Hartmann, a Danish artist who died at a young age. The painting depicts a man and a woman in a loose and expressive style. The figures are partially obscured, and the background is a hazy, indistinct wash of color. This painting exemplifies Hartmann's mature style which developed in the early 1900s, becoming increasingly expressive and simplified.
