Woman with Black Stockings | Ernst Ludwig Kirchner Jigsaw Puzzle

Woman with Black Stockings – The Black Grete (1909) is an original artwork by German expressionist painter Ernst Ludwig Kirchner. The painting features an abstract figure study of a woman lying across a sofa, her body expressed with bold, vibrant colours. The focus on the woman’s black stockings gives the piece its title, with the contrast of dark and light tones adding to the expressive energy of the scene. The dynamic brushstrokes and bright colour palette emphasize the emotional intensity and sensuality of the figure. Kirchner’s use of abstraction, particularly in how the figure is presented, reflects the modernist approach of distorting reality to convey deeper psychological or emotional truths. The composition invites the viewer to interpret the scene through its powerful use of colour and form rather than a literal representation.
