Franz Marc, a prominent German painter and key figure in German Expressionism, is celebrated for his vibrant and emotionally charged animal paintings. "The Fox" is one of Marc’s most renowned works, showcasing an abstract, cubist interpretation of a fox rendered in striking hues of red, brown, and yellow. In this piece, Marc employs his signature use of bright colours to convey deeper emotional meanings, with the red symbolizing violence. This painting is part of a series in which Marc used vivid colours to imbue his animal subjects with symbolic significance.
