About Landscape in Graubünder with Sun Rays

“Landscape in Graubünden with Sun Rays” is an expressionist landscape painting by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner. The artwork portrays a mountainous scene in the region of Graubünden, with striking sun rays piercing through clouds and illuminating the rugged terrain below.

In the foreground of the artwork, a modest cabin is depicted among lush, rolling hills, surrounded by dark, tall trees. The middle ground features a steep, green valley with a stream flowing through it, leading up to the towering mountains in the background. The mountains are rendered in deep, contrasting hues with sunbeams breaking through the clouds, casting dramatic lighting effects across the scene and enhancing the enigmatic atmosphere characteristic of the Expressionist art movement.
