Description
House in a Landscape is a beautiful landscape painted in 1914. This colorful image employs Expressionist devices such as arbitrary color placement and geometric shapes to develop a peaceful and engaging home on canvas. Macke's ability to evoke tranquility from the use of design and color make him one of the most important painters in art history. August Macke (1887 - 1914) was one of the leading members of the German Expressionist group Der Blaue Reiter (The Blue Rider). His style was formed within the mode of French Impressionism and Post-Impressionism and later went through a Fauve period. Macke preferred harmonious scenes with ordinary subjects in everyday situations; he found the beauty in the banality of ordinary experiences. Macke concentrated on color and style to create depth and feeling. His highly developed style integrates Cubism and explores color variations to define the spatial relationship between hues. His overall life's work is a collection of stunning color and quiet scenes; the development of his peerless style is said to be the precursor to modern art.
