About the artist
Franz Marc was a seminal figure in German Expressionism, co-founding the avant-garde "Der Blaue Reiter" (The Blue Rider) group. Renowned for his vibrant, colorful depictions of animals, Marc sought to convey spiritual truths and the purity of nature. His use of non-naturalistic colors and abstract forms expressed his belief in the emotional power of art. Tragically, his promising career was cut short when he died in combat during World War I. Nevertheless, Marc's visionary works continue to inspire, representing a profound bridge between natural motifs and abstract art.
