In “Crouching Deer,” Franz Marc employs bold, dynamic colors and abstract forms characteristic of the Expressionist movement to depict a deer nestled within its natural environment. The composition is imbued with a vibrant palette dominated by rich hues of blue, yellow, and red, creating a striking contrast between the deer and its surroundings. The use of color and form conveys a deep emotional resonance, capturing the essence of the wildlife subject in a stylized and evocative manner.
