Drei Frauen am Waldesrand 1906

"Drei Frauen am Waldesrand" (Three Women at the Edge of the Forest), a woodcut created in 1906 by German Expressionist artist Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, portrays a stark, angular scene of three figures seated amidst a thicket of stylized trees. Kirchner's signature bold lines and contrasting black and white colors create a sense of emotional tension and a feeling of isolation, characteristic of his work during this period. This woodcut reflects the themes of alienation and urban anxiety that were central to Kirchner's art.
