More about this artwork

Franz Marc's "Abstrahierte exotische Landschaft" (1911) offers a unique glimpse into the artist's exploration of abstraction and his deep connection with nature. This artwork, drawn with a misty, almost dreamlike quality, uses a monochromatic palette to suggest a landscape that is both familiar and mysterious. Here, Marc depicts the reclining forms of animals, possibly deer, integrated seamlessly with the sparse, angular lines that represent vegetation and the natural environment.This scene is rendered with a gentle touch, the soft textures and flowing lines evoking a sense of tranquility and oneness with the environment. The animals, though abstracted to some degree, have a presence that is both serene and poignant, possibly reflecting Marc's known concerns about the purity and innocence of animals in contrast to human corruption. The work's essence captures the spiritual essence Marc often sought to express through his depictions of animals and their environments."Abstrahierte exotische Landschaft" not only exemplifies Marc's shift towards abstraction but also encapsulates his artistic quest to convey deeper metaphysical concepts.

Franz Moritz Wilhelm Marc (8 February 1880 – 4 March 1916) was a German painter and printmaker, one of the key figures of German Expressionism. He was a founding member of Der Blaue Reiter (The Blue Rider), a journal whose name later became synonymous with the circle of artists collaborating in it.

His mature works mostly are animals, and are known for bright colors. He was drafted to serve in the German Army at the beginning of World War I, and died two years later at the Battle of Verdun.

In the 1930s, the Nazis named him a degenerate artist as part of their suppression of modern art. However, most of his work survived World War II, securing his legacy. His work is now exhibited in many eminent galleries and museums. When up for auction, his major paintings attract large sums, with a record of £42,654,500 for Die Füchse (The Foxes).
