August Macke: Picture 'Still Life with Anemones and Blue Book' (1911), framed

Product information "August Macke: Picture 'Still Life with Anemones and Blue Book' (1911), framed"

The bouquet of flowers as a bouquet of colours: Prismatic colours were the main elements with which August Macke composed his paintings. He was concerned with 'putting colours together on the board without thinking of a real object' - even when he was using a classical subject. In his 'Still Life with Anemones and a Blue Book', for example, the focus is not on accuracy but on colour harmony.
