Sombra e sonhos
1926
Max Slevogt, one of the 'Prussian Triumvirate' of German Impressionism, is usually famous for his sunny, light-filled landscapes, but this 1926 piece takes a sharp turn into the grotesque. Titled 'Shadows and Dreams,' the image is a chaotic, scratchy nightmare filled with horned demons and twisted figures crowding a dark, cave-like space. It feels like a scene straight out of a fever dream, proving that even the masters of light had plenty of shadows hiding in their imagination.
