The artwork, titled “Orange Barn” by Wolf Kahn, created in 2010, belongs to the Figurative Expressionism art movement and the landscape genre. It showcases Kahn’s distinguished style of blending vibrant colors with realist subject matter.
“Orange Barn” features a barn in vivid orange hues set against a clear sky with subtle tones of purple and blue. The roof of the barn appears to be a muted light blue, contrasting with the bright and saturated colors of the barn itself. The foreground and surrounding areas are dominated by shades of yellow and gold, evoking a sense of warmth and sunlight, while the soft blending of colors embodies the characteristic expressionist approach. The simplicity of the composition, with its focus on color and light, highlights Kahn’s masterful use of pastels to create an evocative, harmonious rural scene.
