Hermann Max Pechstein Print, Fishermen's Houses in Ückeritz (1949)

Fishermen's Houses in Ückeritz (1949) by Hermann Max Pechstein

Fishermen's Houses in Ückeritz (1949) shows low thatched buildings, wind-shaped trees and a broad coastal sky. The slanting roofs and twisted vegetation give the village scene a strong sense of Baltic weather.

The original, titled Fischerhäuser in Ückeritz, combines coloured chalk and brush ink over graphite on wove paper and measures approximately 25.9 × 33.8 cm. Pechstein spent the summer of 1949 on Usedom, where the coast renewed his productivity after the war.

This Hermann Max Pechstein print is available as a fine art print, handmade framed print or canvas panel. Its muted greens and earth tones work well in living rooms, hallways and rustic-modern interiors.

Coastal houses shaped by wind and weather

The low roofs occupy the foreground while trees bend and twist behind them. The compact architecture is balanced by a large, active sky.

About Hermann Max Pechstein
