The farmers could not bring their freshly cut hay straight into the barn from the meadows of the Murnauer Moos, as it was too damp. In order to dry, the hay was piled up in stacks that were up to 4 meters tall. It often stood there well into winter, before the farmers and their horses would haul the grass over the frozen paths into the stables, where it was used as litter. While there is a a car park for hikers near the Ramsachkirchlein today, local farmers used to put up their haystacks, the so-called "Heuhocken" on the village green, at times several hundred of them, when Gabriele Münter first came to Murnau in 1908. As this motif had accompanied Gabriele Münter from the very beginning of her time in the ‘Blue Land’, it is little surprising that she painted it on multiple occasions and in every season. At the beginning of the 1930s, when she had returned to Murnau for good after many years marked by restlessness, Gabriele Münter revisited the motif. Just as it was the case with the Staffelsee or the ‘Blaue Berge’, the haystacks were a reference point in her life in rural Murnau. The “Ödenanger” (village green) is just a short walk from the "Russenhaus" (Russian house), as locals called the house she had bought in 1908, and we can image that she passed by it time and again on her walks. Gabriele Münter chose to depict the view through the haystacks across the bog over to the mountains that she rendered in fine blue tones with the striking rock formation of the "Ettaler Mandl" in the right. An evening sky glowing in a soft shade of pink illuminates the scenery. [EH]
