Lyonel Feininger

Mühlenstrasse, Swinemünde (Muhle Street, Swinemunde)

Lyonel Feininger's *Mühlenstrasse, Swinemünde* is a delicate etching rendered on wove paper that captures the angular, geometric character of a German street scene with the artist's signature Cubist-influenced style. The work employs fine, precise lines to convey the verticality of buildings and the atmospheric depth of an urban thoroughfare, reflecting Feininger's lifelong fascination with architecture and light. Printed with full margins, the composition showcases the intimacy and technical refinement characteristic of his printmaking practice.
