EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Hussars Setting Out, 1913" by August Macke showcases a stunning oil painting on canvas. The artwork, measuring 37.5x56.1 cm, is part of a private collection and beautifully captures the essence of early twentieth-century life. In this piece, we are transported to an outdoor setting where a large group of hussars dressed in formal military attire prepare to embark on a journey. The scene exudes energy and movement as these distinguished men gather with their horses, ready for departure. Macke's masterful brushstrokes bring the horses to life, highlighting their strength and grace as they stand alongside their human counterparts. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of the composition - from the carefully rendered clothing worn by each individual to the vibrant colors that illuminate the scene. The painting not only serves as a visual feast but also provides insight into German culture during this time period. It reflects both the physical activity involved in preparing for travel and the social significance attached to such departures. As we gaze upon this remarkable work of art, we can't help but admire Macke's ability to capture both action and stillness simultaneously. This European artist has left us with an enduring image that transcends time and invites us into a world filled with adventure and anticipation.
