The Artist

Ernst Ludwig Kirchner

Born in Aschaffenberg in Bavaria, German artist Kirchner was painter and printmaker, and one of the leading figures in the 20th Century Expressionist movement. He originally studied architecture at the Königliche Technische Hochschule, but became more interested in their wider range of study subjects, including freehand drawing, perspective drawing and art history.
