Franz Marc and the power of colour: Franz Marc founded the legendary 'Blue Rider' with Wassily Kandinsky and August Macke. He paved the way for an art in which colours acquired a symbolic meaning far beyond naturalistic representation. Four of Franz Marc's most famous paintings appear as painting replicas in outstanding quality: for a brilliant, authentic reproduction, the original artwork was transferred directly onto artist's canvas using the fine art giclée process and stretched onto a stretcher frame. Limited edition of 1,000 copies each. With wide solid wood framing. Format 28 x 36 cm (H/W) each. ars mundi exclusive edition. 'The Big Blue Horses' (1911): Blue symbolised the masculine, but also the superior spiritual, freedom and infinity. The horse - Franz Marc's favourite motif - is the symbol of life par excellence. Original: Walker Art Centre, Minneapolis, USA. 'The White Cat' (Cat on a Yellow Cushion) (1912): White is a symbol of the unknown, infinite possibilities and the mystical - concepts that Franz Marc liked to relate to women and femininity, just like the cat and the colour yellow. Original: Halle an der Saale, Moritzburg State Gallery. 'Cows yellow-red-green' (1912): Like the ancient Egyptians, Marc saw in the colour yellow the feminine, the 'gentle, cheerful, sensual'. Green as a symbiosis of yellow and blue creates growth and wisdom. Original: Munich, Städtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus. 'Red Deer II' (1912): For Franz Marc, red means love, warmth and passion - but at the same time also innocence and vulnerability, which is (also) symbolised by the deer. Original: Kochel am See, Franz Marc Museum, on loan from the Bavarian State Painting Collections. All four Franz Marc paintings in the set.

'I try to empathise pantheistically with the trembling and trickling of blood in nature', is how Franz Marc (1880-1916) described his approach to painting. His psychological feeling, translated into colour, transports his subjects from the naturalistic into a sphere of the unreal, dreamlike and symbolic. His favourite motifs are animals in their direct experience of emotion. Inspired above all by the orphic, colourful cubism of Robert Delaunay, whom he visited in Paris in 1912 together with his Blue Rider colleague August Macke, Marc painted his most important pictures between 1911 and 1914.Original: oil on canvas.4-colour, screen-free reproduction on artist's board. In a silver solid wood frame with passe-partout, glazed. Size 70 x 66.7 cm (H/W).

The horse - Franz Marc's favourite motif - is the symbol of life par excellence. It connects past and future, heaven and earth. Powerful and dynamic, it stands on the ground of reality and yet soars upwards into heavenly spheres. The colour blue symbolises the overriding spiritual, freedom and infinity.

Franz Marc (1880-1916) was one of the most influential figures of Expressionism in Germany. Animals were always among his favourite motifs, although he placed more emphasis on capturing their essence in the picture than on depicting them realistically. He painted the cow, calf and bull here in the primary colours yellow, red and green. Like the ancient Egyptians, Marc saw the feminine, the 'gentle, cheerful, sensual' in the colour yellow. Green as a symbiosis of yellow and blue creates growth and wisdom. Original: 1912, oil on canvas, Munich, Städtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus. High-quality fine art giclée museum reproduction in 7 colours on cotton artist's canvas. Solid wood framing in matt gold patina. Limited edition of 499 copies. Format approx. 43 x 60 cm (H/W).
Franz Marc spent many hours observing animals in their habitat. The German painter tried to see nature through the eyes of the deer. In this way, he allowed the environment to permeate the animal and the deer to become an integral part of it, to be one with it. In 1912, Marc became acquainted with the dynamism of the Italian Futurists and, in Paris, the colours of Robert Delaunay's Cubism, 'Orphism'. From then on, he deviated from his naturalistic depiction and structured the surface of the picture with radiant areas of colour. Combined with the contrasts of light and dark, he created luminous and atmospheric paintings. Deer often appeared as a motif for the artist and co-founder of the artist community 'Der Blaue Reiter'. This may also have been due to the fact that he kept two orphaned deer in his garden in Sindelsdorf, south of Munich. In 1911, Marc was still painting his deer in more robust forms and realistic colours, even though he had already moved away from the pure depiction of nature. Original: Oil on canvas, Kunsthalle, Bremen. 4-colour screen-free reproduction on artist's board. Sheet size 46 x 66 cm (H/W). Framed in a silver solid wood frame with passe-partout, glazed.

Limited edition of 499 copies, with numbered certificate on the reverse. In fine, handcrafted real wood museum framing. Format 76 x 59 cm. Exclusively at ars mundi.
Animals held a special fascination for him. As an artist, Franz Marc not only studied their anatomy in great detail, he also knew a great deal about their behaviour and gestures. And so animal motifs run through his entire artistic oeuvre, especially the depiction of horses. There are numerous drawings, the famous small sculpture 'Two Horses' from 1908/1909 - and, of course, works that later became almost iconic, such as his 'Blue Horse' from 1911. His 'Fabeltier II (Horse)' shows Marc's understanding of nature and art particularly clearly: it virtually merges with nature. The colours and forms of animal and landscape flow together to form a harmonious whole, which for Marc was nothing less than the universal unity of the world. 4-colour screen-free reproduction on artist's board. Motif size 33 x 38 cm (H/W). Sheet size 46 x 66 cm (H/W). Framed in a silver solid wood frame with passe-partout, glazed. Size 67 x 72 cm (H/W).

Franz Marc played a major role in the preparations for the first Blauer Reiter exhibition and in the editorial preparatory work for the 'Almanach des Blauen Reiters', which was published soon afterwards. But the year 1911 was also artistically fruitful in other respects, as can be seen unmistakably in his colourful haystacks glowing in the glistening winter sunlight reflected by the snow.
