Lüneburger Heide. 1937.
Oil on canvas.
Lower right signed and dated. 52.2 x 65 cm (20.5 x 25.5 in).
WV-OM-SW-1937, no. 103, "Lüneb. Heide kl. Totengrund". [KT].
• Characteristic landscape composition by one of Worpswede's most important artists.
• Subtle reproduction of the atmospheric evening mood in the transparent, misty color application characteristic of Modersohn's late phase.
• Otto Modersohn and the fellow Worpswede artists have shaped a new, intuitive landscape painting as pioneers of Modernism in Germany.
• Modersohn's evening atmosphere particularly thrilled Rainer Maria Rilke, who was also in Worpswede, during the early days of the artists' colony
.

We are grateful to Mr Rainer Noeres, Otto Modersohn Museum, Fischerhude, for the kind expert advice.
