Product information "Max Pechstein: Picture 'House on the Curonian Spit' (1909), version framed in black and gold colour"
Max Pechstein (1881-1955) was soon recognised by the public as an outstanding member of 'Die Brücke', indeed as its leading Expressionist, after he joined in 1906. He was also its most successful member, which led to a break in his artistic development: in 1912 he joined the Berlin Secession - an open affront to the painters of the 'Brücke'. The 'House on the Curonian Spit' dates from Pechstein's Brücke period. In terms of motif, however, it also points far ahead into his painterly biography, as it was created during his very first of many visits to the artists' colony of Nidden on the Curonian Spit, where he repeatedly devoted himself to maritime motifs and landscapes. Original: 1909, oil on canvas, 50 x 50 cm, privately owned. Edition transferred directly onto artist's canvas using the fine art giclée process and stretched onto a stretcher frame. Limited edition of 199 copies, numbered, with certificate. © 2022 Pechstein Hamburg / Preetz. Framed in a handcrafted, black and gold-coloured solid wood frame. Format 61.5 x 61.5 cm. ars mundi exclusive edition.
