Mother and Child (Mutter und Kind) 1913

Emil Nolde's 1913 woodcut "Mother and Child (Mutter und Kind)" is a striking example of Expressionism. The artist, known for his bold colors and emotional intensity, depicts a mother and child in a simplified, almost abstract form. The dark teal and yellow-green hues create a sense of depth and intimacy, highlighting the powerful bond between mother and child. Nolde's use of expressive lines and simplified forms conveys a profound sense of emotion, capturing the raw essence of motherhood.
