August Macke

In Designing III I talk about a bold use of colour.

The German expressionist painter August Macke (1887-1914) painted in a style which almost epitomizes on a canvas what I have described, although he was painting twenty years after the play was written.

Here is a little slideshow of some of his paintings I have put together as an image board. Some of them are almost like illustrations of scenes from Spring Awakening.
