About Dolomite Landscape: Tre Croci

The artwork titled “Dolomite Landscape: Tre Croci” was created by Oskar Kokoschka in 1913. Executed in oil, this piece embodies the Expressionist art movement and is categorized under the landscape genre. It is currently housed in the Leopold Museum in Vienna, Austria.

“Dolomite Landscape: Tre Croci” depicts a striking mountainous panorama, characterized by dynamic brushstrokes and a vivid color palette. The central portion of the artwork features a rugged, verdant terrain that is illuminated by the rays of the sun breaking through cloudy skies. A winding path meanders through the scene, leading the viewer’s eye from the immediate foreground, where a solitary horse grazes, to the distant peaks that define the horizon. The juxtaposition of angular, dramatic mountain forms with the softer, fluid greenery below embodies the tension and emotion inherent in Expressionist artistry. This combination of elements illustrates Kokoschka’s keen ability to evoke a profound sense of place and atmosphere.
