Hermann Max Pechstein Print, Früchte (1910)

Früchte (1910) by Hermann Max Pechstein

Früchte (1910) presents a vivid tabletop arrangement of fruit, bowls and blue ceramic vessels against a bright red and yellow background. The scene is immediately recognisable, yet Pechstein reshapes it through emphatic contour, simplified forms and a deliberately concentrated palette.

Früchte is recorded as the reverse of Pechstein's double-sided 1910 canvas Inder und Frauenakt / Früchte, measuring approximately 71.5 × 82.5 cm.

This Hermann Max Pechstein print is available as a fine art print, handmade framed print or canvas panel. The exuberant palette makes a lively choice for kitchens, dining rooms and eclectic living spaces.

Objects arranged through colour and form

Rounded fruit and pottery shapes are packed tightly across the surface, creating a dense rhythm of circles, curves and saturated colour. Strong blue vessels balance the warm fruit tones.

About Hermann Max Pechstein

Hermann Max Pechstein (1881–1955) was a German painter and printmaker and a major figure in German Expressionism. He joined Die Brücke in 1906 and developed a recognisable language of forceful contour, simplified form and heightened colour. Landscapes, fishing communities, portraits, nudes and still lifes remained recurring subjects throughout his career.

Style and technique

Pechstein organises the objects through broad shapes, strong outlines and deliberately intensified colour. Rather than pursuing polished naturalism, he uses contrast and pattern to make the arrangement feel immediate and decorative.
