Eurtimia
Imagine a group of mythological dancers in rainbow-colored robes performing a silent ritual at the foot of a giant mountain. That's the scene in Ernst Schiess's 'Eurhythmie,' where faceless figures in blues, greens, and pinks reach up toward the sky in a gesture of unity. The mountain itself is a beast of a subject, painted with heavy, textured strokes of brown and tan that make it feel solid and ancient, topped with a dusting of snow. It’s a classic Post-Impressionist vibe—less about perfect realism and more about capturing the emotional feeling of the moment. The title hints at 'Eurythmy,' an expressive movement art, suggesting these figures are making music or speech visible through their sweeping poses.
