Church at Gelmeroda
Artist: Lyonel Feininger
Circa: 1918
Lyonel Feininger, the German-American painter and printmaker, became closely associated with the Bauhaus and German Expressionism. Church at Gelmeroda (1918) is one of his most iconic woodcuts, reducing the form of a Gothic church to a crystalline geometry of sharp lines and fractured planes. Feininger returned to Gelmeroda church repeatedly in his work, transforming its structure into a symbol of modern spirituality and abstraction. This print exemplifies his mastery of woodcut technique, uniting Cubist fragmentation with the intensity of Expressionist vision.
