🎨 The Bewitched Mill, 1913
by Franz Marc 🇩🇪
oil on canvas, 130.2 cm x 90.8 cm
Art Institute of Chicago, USA
About the artwork:
In the artwork, human life is represented by the mill and houses on the left, while the animals, water, and trees on the right embody nature. The composition is filled with vivid, symbolic colors and flat, geometric, and abstract shapes, reflecting Marc's knowledge and use of Cubist influences. The movement in the painting is conveyed through the fractured shapes of the red wheel and the curves of the water splashing onto the contented animals, including playful birds, demonstrating Marc's fascination with seeing the world through their innocent, pure eyes. 0 reply
