About This Piece

Max Pechstein, a member of the Die Brücke group, spent many summers on the Baltic coast in Pomerania, where he drew and painted fishermen and their boats. In this 1925 drawing in ink and blue chalk, sailors work the rigging of a sailboat, drawn in quick, energetic lines on a cream ground. You can almost feel the wind and the effort, which is what made Pechstein's coastal work so lively.

The blue and cream palette is a natural fit for coastal homes, bathrooms, and sunny bedrooms. It pairs well with white walls, light wood, and other nautical prints, and looks sharp in a simple black or oak frame.

About the Artist

Max Pechstein (1881–1955) was a German painter and printmaker who co-founded Die Brücke in Dresden alongside Kirchner and Schmidt-Rottluff. He painted with more warmth than most of his peers. Color that wants to please as much as provoke, figures that feel inhabited rather than agitated. He traveled to the South Pacific in 1914 looking for the same unmediated life Gauguin had chased, and the work he made there is among the most alive of his career.
