Archers - Kirchner (1935-37)


What drew me to this picture was that Kirchner seems to add his own touch onto the painting when he implements the brown shapes over top and also behind the people. I'm not really sure of the significance of doing that or what the differing depth of the spots represent, but it just adds to the painting. It's not just an ordinary painting of archers shooting arrows at a target, it seems like there's something more to it.
