Description
Two Ducks at the Rhine, oil on canvas
100 x 50 cm
Creation year
1970s
The picture shows a section of the Rhine north of Zurich. On the wooded bank opposite, autumn has already spread its typical colors. Because the river is in constant motion, the autumn landscape is reflected somewhat blurred in the dark water. The pastel-colored sky suggests light cloud cover. The sky and autumn forest and their corresponding reflections in the river form four broad stripes, which lend the picture a dynamic tension.
