Interieur met drie generaties van een familie 1918 - 1919

"Interieur met drie generaties van een familie" (Interior with Three Generations of a Family), a 1918-1919 etching by German Expressionist Max Beckmann, depicts a family group, including a young child, an adult woman, and an elderly man, all positioned closely within a cramped interior space. The composition and use of line contribute to a sense of unease and confinement, reflecting Beckmann's artistic style which often depicted psychological tension and the anxieties of modern life. This print, one of the first in Beckmann's "Hell" series, exemplifies his distinctive use of sharp lines and bold forms.
