by August Macke
August Macke painted his wife Elisabeth seated at a table in this intimate portrait. The vibrant colors and simplified forms reflect his Expressionist approach. Macke often portrayed his wife and domestic scenes with warmth.
The German painter died young in World War I. His luminous color sense marked him as a major talent. This work remains in a private collection.
