Akt Im Wald 1923

"Akt Im Wald" (1923) by German Expressionist artist Otto Mueller depicts a nude female figure standing in a forest. The figure is rendered with simplified lines and forms, characteristic of Mueller's style. The background is a vibrant green and yellow, suggesting a lush forest setting, while the figure is outlined in a pale yellow, contrasting with the darker, more expressive brushstrokes used to depict the trees. This piece exemplifies Mueller's focus on depicting the human form with an emotional intensity, capturing the raw essence of his subject matter.
