Product information "Max Pechstein: Picture 'Flusslandschaft' (around 1907), version framed in black and gold colour"
Among the Brücke painters, Max Pechstein was the only one who had an academic education. He completed his studies at the Academy of Art in Dresden in 1906 and was also honoured with the Saxon State Prize. He was the most successful during his membership of Brücke (1906-1912): art critics and the press liked to emphasise his works on the occasion of Brücke exhibitions (and Franz Marc jokingly called his fellow painter 'the little Napoleon of Berlin artists'). The State Prize (also known as the 'Rome Prize' because it included a three-month stay in the eternal city) enabled Pechstein to travel extensively the following year, taking him beyond Rome to Florence and Ravenna. He subsequently visited Paris, where he discovered Cézanne, Gauguin and Matisse in particular. Both the southern Italian sun and his encounter with the French Post-Impressionists left their mark on his 'River Landscape'. Original: c. 1907, oil on canvas, 53 x 68 cm, Museum Folkwang, Essen.
