More about this artwork

This striking artwork by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, titled "Umschlagzeichnung zu Adelbert von Chamissos Erzählung ‘Peter Schlemihls wundersame Geschichte’” (1915), serves as the cover design for a story steeped in mystery and transformation. Created for Adelbert von Chamisso’s narrative about a man who sells his shadow to the devil, Kirchner’s expressionist style vividly captures the story’s surreal and eerie essence.In this evocative woodcut print, Kirchner depicts a chaotic scene filled with disjointed figures, appearing to move dynamically across the canvas. The use of stark black and white enhances the dramatic and somewhat unsettling mood, perfect for the supernatural themes in Chamisso's tale. The figures, abstract and fragmented, mirror the protagonist's fractured identity and the tumultuous journey he undergoes after his fateful decision.This art piece not only stands as an extraordinary example of Kirchner’s bold lines and emotive use of contrast but also dives deep into the themes of identity, loss, and existential dread, much like the story it illustrates. It invites viewers to reflect on the shadows we cast and the prices we pay for our choices.

All Artworks

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.
