This early Expressionist portrait by Alexej von Jawlensky depicts a sleeping girl in bold colours and expressive brushstrokes. The painting captures a moment of quiet contemplation.
Alexej von Jawlensky (1864-1941) was a Russian Expressionist painter known for his intense, spiritual portraits. He was a key member of the Neue Künstlervereinigung München (New Artists' Association of Munich) and later Der Blaue Reiter (The Blue Rider), groups that sought to express inner emotions through abstraction and colour. Jawlensky's work evolved from representational to increasingly abstract forms, culminating in his series of 'Mystical Heads' and 'Saviour's Faces'. 'Sleeping Girl' exemplifies Jawlensky's early Expressionist style. The subject, a young woman, is depicted in repose, her head resting on her hand. The colour palette is bold and unconventional, with pinks and blues used to render the skin tones, set against a background of yellow and dark blue. The brushstrokes are visible and expressive, contributing to the overall emotional intensity of the piece. The composition is simple, focusing attention on the subject's face and the mood of quiet contemplation.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
