More about this artwork

Titled "Sitzende, von Blattwerk umgeben (helle Fassung)" (1923) by German artist Otto Mueller, this captivating lithographic print showcases a distinctive composition that highlights the fusion of human figure and nature. In this artwork, Mueller depicts a seated nude female, gracefully ensconced amidst lush foliage. The image is rendered with a sketchy yet expressive line technique that lends a vibrant, almost trembling energy to the scene.The woman's pose and expression exude a serene intimacy, as if she is at one with the natural world that envelops her. The foliage is not merely a backdrop; rather, it intertwines with her form, accentuating the organic relationship between human and environment. This piece is emblematic of Mueller's style, characterized by simplified forms and an eloquent expressiveness. Müller, a member of Die Brücke group, frequently explored themes of nature, nudity, and primitivism, seeking a raw and unmediated emotional connection through his art."Sitzende, von Blattwerk umgeben (helle Fassung)" captures a moment of natural tranquility and the inherent beauty of unrefined, harmonious existence, standing as a profound statement on the artist's search for purity and simplicity.

Otto Müller was a German painter and printmaker of the Die Brücke expressionist movement.

Mueller was born in Liebau (now Lubawka, Kamienna Góra County), Kreis Landeshut, Silesia. Between 1890 and 1892 he was trained in lithography in Görlitz and Breslau. From 1894 to 1896 he studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Dresden and continued his study in Munich during 1898. He left Munich's academy after Franz von Stuck classified him as untalented.
