More about this artwork

Ernst Ludwig Kirchner's "Nude Girl Lying on a Sofa" (1905) exemplifies his expressive and evocative use of form and contrast. This woodcut print captures the serenity and vulnerability of the subject in a moment of repose. The figure's body curves gently over the intricately patterned fabric of the sofa, conveying both relaxation and a sense of movement through the flowing lines that define her limbs. The bold, black-and-white contrasts emphasize the contours of her form and the textures of the upholstery beneath her, creating an intimate atmosphere. Kirchner's talent in handling lines and shapes narrates an enclosed narrative of stillness, contrasting vividly with the dynamic geometric patterns covering the sofa.

Ernst Ludwig Kirchner (1880–1938) was one of the most important German Expressionist painters. He was a co-founder of Die Brücke, a group of German expressionist artists formed in Dresden in 1905. Die Brücke and Kirchner took inspiration from Vincent Van Gogh and Edvard Munch, as well as African and Oceanic art. They used woodblock printing as a medium to showcase their signature style: flat, unrealistic images with vivid colors. The recurring themes in Kirchner's artworks included exotic cultures, faraway landscapes, self-portraits, dancers and Berlin street life. His paintings and prints effectively portrayed non-European cultures despite the fact that he never traveled outside of Europe.
