Bridge on Crown Prince Embankment 1909

This 1909 lithograph, "Bridge on Crown Prince Embankment," exemplifies the bold, expressive style of German Expressionist artist Ernst Ludwig Kirchner. The piece features a simplified, almost abstract depiction of a bridge and figures, capturing the essence of urban life in Berlin. Kirchner's use of sharp lines and dark, contrasting tones convey a sense of energy and dynamism, characteristic of his artistic approach. This work, typical of Kirchner's style, reflects the anxieties and complexities of modern life.
