Bather on the Beach 1912 - 1913

"Bather on the Beach" is a watercolor and ink drawing created by German Expressionist artist Ernst Ludwig Kirchner in 1912-1913. The work depicts a nude female figure standing in profile on a beach, her back to the viewer. The simplified forms and bold lines characteristic of Kirchner's style create a sense of dynamism and immediacy, capturing a fleeting moment of modern life. The angular shapes and the use of blue and gray tones evoke the artist's fascination with urban landscapes and the alienation of modern society.
