'Abenddämmerung mit dunkler Wolke/Sonnenuntergang am Fluss' (Twilight with Dark Cloud/Sunset by the River) is one of the watercolours Emil Nolde created circa 1920 in his East Frisian homeland. These intense works are characterised by a distinctive mood and atmosphere. Nolde was closely connected to the landscape of his native region and had a deep understanding of the unique light and weather conditions, which he skilfully captured in his works.
His watercolours, including the work presented here, often show cloud formations above a flat, expansive landscape, marked by a strong sense of drama. The depiction of the sky is the central motif in Nolde's landscape paintings and often determines the mood and atmosphere of the entire work. The landscapes themselves are rather sparse and barren, but Nolde adeptly conveys their beauty and uniqueness.
In his watercolours, Nolde employs a powerful and expressive painting style that intensifies the sense of dynamism and movement. At the same time, he achieves a harmonious and balanced composition through his choice of colours. The watercolour presented here is an impressive example of his masterly technique and artistic talent, which he dedicated to his homeland.
