ELK 1880- 1938
I' m too lazy and don't find it very important for my LJ to look up all the data and stuff, and will only post the date/ name when I find it necessary. They are all by him, of course. Except that one photo with Dodo. Rather chronological.. I might have confused some though. Ok ok I know some are not right but who, except me, cares?
No words. Some day I will scan the pictures from my photobook and scan the photos in good quality, those two were in the self-portrait book and they are smalllllll.
With Dodo, one of the three important women in his life.
Just because I find the colours so lively and beautiful, and because you can hardly find his watercolours anywhere.
Probably while high on morphine.
In the sanatorium, notice the lines. He was partetic but still tried to produce things.
With Erna, very idyllic..
Schwarzer Frühling (Black Spring)
I find this so personal, I feel hurt when I look at it.
There's a later version of this picture, but I like the colours in this one better. I usually don't like pink, but he uses is it in the best way I can imagine, simply beautiful. The other version is, all in all, stronger though, and I like the other version, all in all, better :)
When he painted this Albert Müller (man on the left) was already dead. It is titled Im Schnellzug: Albert Müller und E. L. Kirchner, but he planned to title it dead man or something like that, I can't remember... Anyways, must' ve been terrible. I find it very intimate and I can hardly look at it without wanting to cry.
His cats were named Bobby and Schacky, somtimes also written Boby/ Shacky, I don't know.
With Erna.. notice how they make one piece.
Looks like they are already doomed and about to die, very dark but at the same time at ease with everything. I like this much better than the actual oilpainting.
