The work "Haus hinter Bäumen" was made in Fritz Bleyl's last year with the "Brücke". In 1907, the Zwickau-born artist married Gertrud Tannert and moved into a house with her in Freiberg, where he took a position at the mining academy. After the end of his time with the "Brücke", he continued to be active as an artist, but no longer showed works in public. Ink brush drawing was one of the artist's preferred techniques. Bleyl created many of his most outstanding works in this medium. Through the varying width of the strokes and the effective, almost musical lines, he developed an impressive visual language in the present sheet: trees and grass, clouds and sky - he depicts the movement of all these pictorial elements in just a few brushstrokes. With great sensitivity, the artist thus succeeds in creating a representation in which tranquility and dynamism enter into a fascinating combination. [AM]
