The Mountain 

"The Mountain" is an expressive landscape painting by German Expressionist artist Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, known for his bold colors and simplified forms. The painting depicts a mountain range with a dominant, angular peak and a deep, dark blue valley that appears to lead to a distant, green horizon. Kirchner's use of vibrant, almost neon-like colors creates a sense of intensity and immediacy, characteristic of the Expressionist movement. This work captures the essence of nature through a subjective and emotional lens, emphasizing the artist's inner experience rather than a precise, photographic representation.
