Night Herons by Otto Eckmann

This trio of herons stand on a stark red background, black woodcut lines detailing their feathers, beaks, and the water rings around their legs. Eckmann and other Jugenstil artists drew heavily from Japanese woodblock prints to explore nature through bold patterns, saturated color, and flattened, less naturalistic compositions.

This work was featured in the Driehaus Museum’s 2020-2022 exhibition, PAN: Prints of the Avant-Garde Europe 1895-1900.
