Expressionism is an artistic movement that emerged in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, characterized by its bold and emotive portrayal of the human experience. Artists such as Vincent Van Gogh, Edvard Munch, Amedeo Modigliani, and Egon Schiele used their unique styles to express intense emotions through their artwork. In Van Gogh's iconic painting "Starry Night, " swirling brushstrokes create a sense of movement and energy, reflecting the artist's inner turmoil. Similarly, Munch's "Melancholy" depicts a figure engulfed in despair, capturing the depths of human suffering. Modigliani's portrait "Alice" showcases his signature elongated figures with haunting eyes that seem to penetrate your soul. The Dolomite landscape by an unknown Austrian artist evokes a sense of isolation and solitude amidst nature's grandeur. Schiele's "Seated Female Nude with Raised Arm" exudes vulnerability and raw sensuality through its contorted pose. In contrast, Henri Matisse's "Blue Nude IV" uses vibrant colors to celebrate the beauty of the female form. The self-portrait by Schiele titled "Kneeling Nude with Raised Hands" reveals his introspective exploration of identity and sexuality. Meanwhile, Käthe Kollwitz captures the tenderness between two lovers in her drawing titled "Couple Sitting. " Paul Cézanne’s still life painting “Blue Vase with Oranges” combines geometric shapes with vivid hues to create a harmonious composition. José Gutierrez Solana’s work “Masks” portrays grotesque characters wearing masks that symbolize societal facades. Lastly, Franz Marc’s “A Tower of Blue Horses” presents mystical blue horses against a vibrant background—a representation of his belief in art as a spiritual force.
