Dresden | Ernst Ludwig Kirchner Postcard

Street Scene, Dresden (1910) by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner is a dynamic expressionist painting that captures the bustling life of the streets in Dresden. With its sharp angular lines and vivid colour palette, the artwork depicts the intense urban atmosphere of the early 20th century. Figures rush by in a fragmented, almost disjointed manner, reflecting Kirchner's fascination with the psychological and physical effects of modern city life. The use of bold, non-naturalistic colours adds to the intensity and movement within the scene, while the distorted figures emphasise the alienation and energy of urban environments. This work is a vivid example of Kirchner's innovative approach to representing the modern world through his distinct expressionist style.
