A Danish harbour dissolves into a powerful, abstract study of twilight blue.
Two solitary figures stand at the water's edge, their forms melting into a landscape of deep indigo silhouettes under a luminous, moonlit sky. Tauscher reduces the scene to its essential forms, using broad, fluid brushstrokes to create a composition that hovers between representation and pure abstraction. This is a masterful work of Northern European modernism, a quiet and melancholic scene where the cold light and deep shadows evoke a profound sense of place and mood.
