Nolde, one of the great loner of German art in the early 20th Century, "as a member of the group of artists bridge with his" colors storms the model for the younger artist friends. He developed his peculiar style of painting that draws the dynamics and intensity of the color of the viewer into its spell. The intense brightness and bold colors of the northern summer, the northern lights, the deep polar night, the terrible troll and the dream-visions of the Spökenkiekerei found in Nolde's paintings a terrific response.
