Lion hunt for Delacroix 1913

"Lion Hunt for Delacroix" (1913) is a woodcut by German Expressionist artist Franz Marc (1880-1916), known for his bold, simplified forms and vivid colors. This striking black and white print depicts a dramatic scene of a lion hunt, with a rider on horseback spearing a lion as other figures watch. The stark contrasts of light and dark, and the dynamic composition, evoke a sense of power and primal energy, characteristic of Expressionism. The woodcut's simplified forms and expressive lines lend a sense of urgency and tension to the scene.
