August Macke : The Artist's Wife, Elisabeth, with a Blue Hat, 1909 Oil on canvas 49.7 x 34 cm | 19.5 x 13.3 in LWL-Museum für Kunst und Kultur (Westphalian State Museum of Art and Cultural History) Münster, Germany. Further info in the alt text 👇

The painting features Elisabeth Gerhardt, Macke's lifelong muse, whom he married in October 1909, the same year this portrait was created.

Style: 
This artwork captures a pivotal transitional period for Macke. It combines the structured psychological depth of traditional portraiture with the vibrant, bold color choices that would define the Fauvist and Expressionist movements.

Composition: 
Elisabeth is depicted wearing a large, fashionable blue hat adorned with a striking plume, contrasting beautifully with her warm skin tones and the rich, dark tones of her attire. Her direct, serene gaze provides an intimate glimpse into the deep connection between the artist and his wife.
