ゼルティヒ谷
1924
As a key figure of German Expressionism, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner escaped the chaos of World War I and his own crumbling mental health by retreating to the serene Sertig Valley in the Swiss Alps. In this striking 1924 drawing, he captures the rugged beauty of his new home with jagged, energetic lines that make the snow-covered pines and towering peaks feel almost alive. The small, humble huts nestled in the valley floor offer a sense of quiet isolation, reflecting the artist's deep connection to this mountainous sanctuary where he spent the rest of his life.
