Rudernder Akt 1914

"Rudernder Akt" (Rowing Nude), painted in 1914 by German Expressionist Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, depicts a nude female figure in a boat. Kirchner's expressive brushstrokes and bold colors, typical of the Die Brücke artistic movement, create a sense of dynamism and emotional intensity. The figure is rendered in a simplified and elongated style, conveying a sense of movement and the artist's personal interpretation of the human form. This piece exemplifies the bold use of color and distorted figures that characterized Kirchner's art.
