Otto Modersohn (1865, Soest – 1943, Rotenburg) "Moorgraben und Bäume" (Moor Trench and Trees). Original title A powerful, energetic compositional study from Modersohn’s late period around 1930, which impressively reflects Modersohn’s fascination with the ruggedness and rich contrasts of nature. After the death of his wife, Paula Modersohn-Becker, the artist—who had founded the Worpswede artists’ colony in 1889 together with Fritz Mackensen and Hans am Ende—moved in 1908 to nearby Fischerhude, an idyllic village in the Wümme River valley. There, he was able to experience the landscape and nature in a new, contemplative way. Charcoal and chalk on paper. 14.7 cm x 20.5 cm. Framed. Accompanied by a confirmation of authenticity by Christian Modersohn (the artist’s son). Charcoal and chalk on paper.
