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 'Green Horse' from 1912 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 approx. 27 x 42 cm (H/W). Sheet size 46 x 66 cm (H/W). Framed in a silver solid wood frame with passe-partout, glazed. Format approx. 57 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.
