Seascape with poplars 1924

Max Beckmann's 1924 painting "Seascape with poplars" depicts a stylized landscape, likely inspired by the artist's time in Germany. The landscape features a river, tall poplars, and two figures fishing in the foreground. The painting is characterized by a distinctive use of color and form, typical of Beckmann's expressionist style. The elongated and angular forms of the trees and the figures, along with the vibrant color palette, create a sense of dynamism and emotional intensity. The presence of a chimney in the distance suggests a human presence within the natural environment.
