"I chose the coastal village, which at that time consisted of a few houses only and can pride itself for being the oldest seaside resort on the German North Sea coast, more or less by chance. Erich Heckel reported that he had found Dangast on a map in an atlas, when looking for places to stay at the coast with Schmidt-Rottluff." Gerd Wietek, Maler der "Brücke" in Dangast von 1907 bis 1912, Oldenburg 1957, p. 10.
Blühende Kresse . 1907. Oil on canvas. Lower left monogrammed and dated. Once more signed and dated on the stretcher. 68.5 x 76 cm (26.9 x 29.9 in). [SM]. • Heckel stages a true color frenzy with complimentary contrasts. • Maximum dissolution of color and form. • In the face of the tremendous war losses, owning a landscape from 1907 is something very special • Works of this quality are of utmost rarity .
