Portrait of the Artist’s Wife by August Macke


A nod to my vintage store on Zazzle with this marvellous portrait by August Macke.

Portrait of the Artist’s Wife by August Macke

Portrait of the Artist’s wife Elisabeth with a Hat (Frau des Kunstlers mit Hut) 1909. August Macke (3 January 1887 – 26 September 1914) was one of the leading members of the German Expressionist group Der Blaue Reiter (The Blue Rider). He lived during a particularly innovative time for German art which saw the development of the main German Expressionist movements as well as the arrival of the successive avant-garde movements which were forming in the rest of Europe. Like a true artist of his time, Macke knew how to integrate into his painting the elements of the avant-garde which most interested him. [Wikimedia] 

Enjoy!
