Landscape, Lake Geneva 1915

"Landscape, Lake Geneva" is a 1915 painting by the Russian Expressionist artist Alexej von Jawlensky (1864-1941). The painting depicts a simplified, almost abstract, landscape with a lake in the foreground and mountains in the distance. Jawlensky uses bold strokes of color, particularly reds, blues, and yellows, to create a sense of vibrant energy and emotional intensity. The composition is characterized by a horizontal division of space and a sense of depth created through the use of overlapping shapes. This artwork is a quintessential example of Jawlensky's later style, known for its emphasis on color and abstraction.
