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. One of Franz Marc's most famous paintings appears as a painting replica in outstanding quality: for a brilliant, authentic reproduction, the original 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. Framed in a silver-coloured solid wood frame. Size 29 x 37 cm (H/W). ars mundi exclusive edition. '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.
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. Original: 1911, oil on canvas, 75 x 100 cm, privately owned. Reproduction in fine art giclée process directly on artist's canvas and mounted on stretcher frame. Limited edition of 499 copies.

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 have since become almost iconic, such as his 'Blue Horse' from 1911. The three horses from 1912 show Marc's understanding of nature and art particularly clearly: they virtually merge with the surrounding 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. Original: mixed media, privately owned. The original was auctioned at Christie's in London in 2018 for the equivalent of 17.5 million euros. At the time, this was the highest auction price for a work by Franz Marc.

Franz Marc's well-known animal motifs were created between 1910 and 1914 and he described animals as a symbol of the idea of creation. His works are utopias of a paradisiacal world with a symbolic use of colour. According to his colour laws, blue was an expression of the spiritual.

Reproduction in 4 colours in frequency-modulated process on cardboard. Framed in a silver-coloured solid wood frame, glazed. Size 84 x 64 cm (H/W).

'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 58 x 71 cm (H/W).
It was an enormously eventful time in which the 'Two Horses' were created: Franz Marc met August Macke in 1910, and on New Year's Day 1911 he met Gabriele Münter, Marianne Werefkin and Wassily Kandinsky for the first time - through Alexej Jawlensky. Within a short space of time, the members of one of the most important groups of artists of the 20th century were thus assembled. The 'Blue Rider' was founded in December 1911, and Kandinsky later mused on its name: 'We both loved blue, Marc - horses, I - riders. So the name came naturally'. The original of the work, painted in mixed media, belongs to the collection of the Kunsthalle Hamburg.
