More about this artwork

We are delighted to feature "Archers" (1935), a vibrant piece by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, a pioneer of the German Expressionist movement. This artwork captures the dynamic beauty of archery, showcasing a series of figures poised in the act of drawing their bows. Characterized by its vivid colors and bold lines, the painting conveys movement and tension through abstracted forms and energetic strokes.In this depiction, Kirchner plays with scale and perspective, blending foreground and background seamlessly, which directs the viewer’s attention across the canvas in an exploration of form and color. The variety of figures, each presented in a different pose and with varying degrees of detail, highlights Kirchner’s focus on the expression of human energy and precision involved in archery.The use of sketch-like lines and washes of color not only illustrates Kirchner's adept hand at drawing but also his exceptional ability to communicate the essence of a scene with minimal details."Archers" is a testament to Kirchner's mastery at condensing vibrant, emotional experience into strikingly composed artwork, making it a captivating piece within the modernist movement.

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.
