The New Lake (Der Neue See) by Lovis Corinth, 1920

Lovis Corinth's 'The New Lake' (1920) is a burst of raw energy, where frantic, scratchy lines make the trees and water seem to vibrate rather than sit still. This loose, expressive style defined his later years, moving away from strict realism to capture the emotional feeling of a scene. You can see his bold signature scrawled at the bottom alongside '20/20', marking this as the final print in a tiny, exclusive edition.
