Kind unter Bäumen – Studie zu den ‘Spielenden Kindern’ 1882

'Kind unter Bäumen – Studie zu den ‘Spielenden Kindern’' (1882) is a study for Max Liebermann's larger painting, 'Playing Children'. The painting features a young girl standing next to two trees, her figure silhouetted against the lush green foliage. Liebermann, a prominent German Impressionist, is known for his depictions of everyday life, especially scenes from the working class. The use of loose brushstrokes and vibrant colors in 'Kind unter Bäumen' is characteristic of Impressionism, capturing the fleeting moment and light of the outdoor scene.
