A beautiful landscape of the Glottertal valley in the Black Forest. The painting style is a unique blend of two movements: the center is painted in a vibrant Expressionist style, which gradually transitions to a soft Impressionist style at the edges. In the center of the image, the core of the valley is depicted with the raw emotion of Expressionism. The colors are bold, intense, and non-naturalistic, with swirling, energetic brushstrokes that distort the forms of the hills and trees to convey intense feeling, reminiscent of Van Gogh. Towards the periphery, the style softens into Impressionism. The edges of the sky and the foreground are painted with small, delicate brushstrokes that capture the fleeting play of the late afternoon golden hour light, focusing on atmosphere and visual sensation, reminiscent of Monet. The result is a landscape where the emotional heart of the scene is expressed with raw power, while the surrounding elements are depicted as a soft, fleeting memory of light
