This poster shows \"The Tower of Blue Horses\" or \"Turm der blauen Pferde\" from 1913. A very colourful work as Marc is known for, it shows several blue horses upon one another in a \"tower\".\u003cbr\u003e\nDimensions: 37 in x 24.5 in (94 cm x 62 cm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFranz Marc was a German Expressionist painter. He was one of the leading members of the German Expressionist group Der Blaue Reiter (The Blue Rider). He lived during a particularly active time for German art: he saw the development of the main German Expressionist movements as well as the arrival of the successive avant-garde movements which were forming in the rest of Europe. As an artist of his time, Macke knew how to integrate into his painting the elements of the avant-garde which most interested him. Like his friend August Macke and Otto Soltau, he was one of the young German artists who died in the First World War.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Blue Rider was a designation by Wassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc for their exhibition and publication activities, in which both artists acted as sole editors in the almanac of the same name, first published in mid-May 1912. The editorial team organized two exhibitions in Munich in 1911 and 1912 to demonstrate their art-theoretical ideas based on the works of art exhibited. Traveling exhibitions in German and other European cities followed. The Blue Rider disbanded at the start of World War I in 1914.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat is special about exhibition and gallery posters is that they are an affordable way of getting good, unique art on the walls, as although it is not an artists original, neither is it something that has been mass reproduced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause of the age of these posters, there are areas of wear and tear, particularly on the edges. I have done my best to take photos where they are torn. The good news is that when framed, the tears press up well against glass, and edges can be hidden by mats. Any wear picked up from years are part of the charm. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese posters are sent as unframed. They are delivered in a cardboard tube for protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSee the FAQ for more information on shipping, tracking and insurance options.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lampposted","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57206228353411,"sku":"LI0JR","price":200.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0986\/8538\/7139\/files\/il_fullxfull.6437598028_2isu.jpg?v=1768967084","url":"https:\/\/lampposted.com\/products\/1990s-franz-marc-poster-the-tower-of-90459","provider":"Lampposted","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
