Two Bathers near the Woods

Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, 1910/1911

The image depicts a series of flowing lines and soft, sketchy shapes that form abstract human figures. Curved lines create the figures in a standing and reclining position. Broad strokes of green, blue, and red watercolor are applied around the figures, hinting at a background of landscape or vegetation. The standing figure wears a red cap. The reclining figure suggests a relaxed atmosphere.
