Alexej Jawlensky Figurative Drawings and Watercolors

Russian, b. 1864
Alexei Jawlensky (1864–1941) was a Russian-born Expressionist painter known for his vivid use of color and bold, abstracted portraits. Born in Torzhok, Russia, he later moved to Germany, where he became associated with the Der Blaue Reiter group alongside Wassily Kandinsky and other modernist artists. His work evolved from Fauvist-inspired landscapes to increasingly abstract and spiritual portraiture, particularly his Meditations series. Due to illness, he suffered from arthritis in later years but continued to paint. Jawlensky became a German citizen in 1934 and spent his final years in Wiesbaden, where he passed away in 1941.
