Two bathing girls 1909

Franz Marc’s 1909 painting, "Two Bathing Girls", depicts two nude figures, one sitting and one standing, by a body of water. The figures are rendered in a simplified and expressive style, with bold outlines and vibrant colors. The painting showcases the artist's signature use of strong colors and simplified forms characteristic of German Expressionism. This style, often associated with a focus on emotional expression, is reflected in the dynamic composition and the figures' gestures. The painting's vibrant color palette contributes to its intense mood and emotive quality.
