• Pechstein is one of the artists who developed a new, expressive visual language in nude painting.
• The artist uses pen and ink in a masterful way to create a dynamic yet minimalist visual language.
• The expressive and flowing lines reinforce the physicality of the nude figures and emphasize the energy and presence of the human forms.
