• Between 1927 and 1929, Schmidt-Rottluff traveled to Ticino several times and found inspiration for his intense watercolors in the mountainous landscape.
• In an almost abstract manner, the artist dissolved the mountain range and Lake Lugano into softly flowing shades of blue, red, and green.
• He skillfully transforms the atmospheric panorama into an exciting composition of vertical, horizontal and diagonal elements, cold and warm contrasts and alternating soft and opaque areas of color
.

The work is documented in the archive of the Karl and Emy Schmidt-Rottluff Foundation, Berlin.
