essay
Even in the small format, Emil Nolde developed a strength of the color-intensive overall impression that characterizes his famous watercolors. The breaks in the light of the times of day, the unusual colors of the sky over the sea, were the triggering moment for Emil Nolde's interpretations. The sea in its unfathomable variations of appearance as well as the barren Holstein landscape have been interpreted by Nolde in a variety of motifs that have hardly been seen before, let alone pictorially captured. With his watercolors, Nolde created an incomparable work for this northern landscape, which is unparalleled in its effect and breadth.
