ダボス近郊アルプスの農夫たち
1921
Ernst Ludwig Kirchner sketched this lively scene of farmers near Davos, Switzerland, in 1921 after fleeing the city for the mountains to heal his nerves. As a leader of German Expressionism, he didn't care about perfect realism; instead, he used jagged, scratchy lines to give the figures a stiff, almost puppet-like quality. You can see the heavy, vertical shading on their clothes, making them look like they are wearing striped traditional garb, capturing a raw, unpolished moment of Alpine life.
