Landschaft Mit Sonnenblumen 1910 — Fine Art

Landschaft Mit Sonnenblumen 1910 uses quick brush strokes to set sunflowers against a ground of broad colour patches. Gabriele Munter often worked in this manner, laying paint directly on the surface with a lively hand.

The flowers sit in a landscape setting, with the petals drawn in short strokes and the leaves in wider sweeps. You can see the painted surface held in a fine art print, set in a frame with a back panel.

The matte finish keeps the greens and yellows soft, so the bright flowers stay clear without a shine under a lamp. On a bedroom wall the yellow petals stand out from the doorway, and the short brush strokes show when you step nearer.
