EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the vibrant energy of a Berlin street scene in 1913. Painted by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, a prominent German expressionist artist, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures an impressive 121x95 cm. The painting depicts a bustling cityscape filled with intriguing characters and architectural details. The image captures the essence of early 20th-century Berlin, with its decadent atmosphere and avant-garde spirit. A man wearing a bowler hat stands prominently in the foreground, his cigarette elegantly poised between his fingers. A woman adorned with a feather boa exudes confidence as she strolls down the street. This particular artwork has an intriguing history; it was originally part of the collection at the Brucke Museum in Berlin until 2006 when it was returned to its pre-World War II owner's heirs. Later sold at auction by Christie's for an astounding price of 38 million US dollars, it now finds its home at Neue Galerie in New York City. Kirchner's Berlin Street Scene is not only a testament to his skill as an expressionist painter but also serves as a symbol of restitution and justice for those who lost their artworks during turbulent times. This stunning piece invites viewers to immerse themselves in the dynamic streetscape of early 20th-century Berlin while contemplating themes such as identity, urban life, and artistic freedom.
