In the early days of the twentieth century, in an era when art challenged the limits of realism and the impressions of life, one man, Wilhelm Lehmbruck, was at the forefront of this movement. Born on January 4, 1881, in Meiderich, near Duisburg, his life's path was determined by the fate of a simple miner's family who welcomed him as their fourth child. But the inevitable did not escape him, the death of his father in 1899 changed the course of his life and steered him on the path of art. Recommended by his teacher, Lehmbruck entered the Düsseldorf School of Arts and Crafts, where he earned his living by illustrating scientific books and decorative works, and later studied under the guidance of Karl Janssen at the Düsseldorf Art Academy.
After graduating in 1906, Lehmbruck quickly acquired notoriety and recognition. He joined the Association of Düsseldorf Artists and the Société nationale des beaux-arts in Paris, and in 1907 began his participation in the annual exhibition at the Grand Palais. Wedding bells rang for him and Anita Kaufmann in 1908, and a year later his first son, Gustav Wilhelm, was born. With the support of Düsseldorf art collector Carl Nolden, he moved his permanent residence to Paris in 1910 and participated for the first time in the progressive Salon d'Automne. The relationships he forged in Paris with artists such as Alexander Archipenko and Auguste Rodin as well as architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and art critic Julius Meier-Graefe led to a fruitful period of creativity and the presentation of his works in notable exhibitions in Berlin, Cologne, Munich, Düsseldorf, and even the 1913 Armory Show in New York. During this time, Lehmbruck and his family moved back to Germany amidst the approach of World War I, a move that left some of his works in Paris and eventually lost them in the war effort.
Lehmbruck, struggling with the anguish of war and his own inner darkness, produced some of his most famous and expressive works. His sculptures, centered primarily around the human body, express suffering and misery and are often anonymized to render individual facial features unrecognizable. A prime example is the overlong and highly abstracted figure "The Fallen One." The turmoil and conflict of the war weighed heavily on Lehmbruck and ultimately led to his tragic death on March 25, 1919, in Berlin-Friedenau. However, his influence on the art world lives on in his works, which we offer as art prints. They are a shining example of art's ability to depict human suffering and emotion while maintaining a high level of technical brilliance and artistic sensitivity. Today, his works can not only be seen in museums and galleries around the world, but are also available as high-quality art prints that keep the spirit of his art and the legacy of his artistic genius alive for generations to come.
