This view of a farmhouse in front of summer pasture fields provides a further, almost exactly contemporaneous, testament to Gabriele Münter’s engagement with themes from her local surroundings as well as the renewed energy of her draughtsmanship.
From the electrical pole to the dung heap between two barns to the poultry pecking at the ground farm life is revealed in all its facets, before the gaze opens up to the pictorially dominant saturated green of the undulating Alpine foothills. By contrast, the blue sky serves again only the function of a frame.
