Girl with Frogs (Mädchen mit Fröschen) (plate, preceding p. 225) from the periodical Das Kunstblatt, vol. 1, no. 8 (Aug 1917)

Heinrich Campendonk
German, 1889–1957
1917
A narrow, vertical woodcut print in which Heinrich Campendonk depicts a stylized nude girl amid frogs and flowers, aiming to fuse folk ornament with expressive modernist form.
Bold black fields and crisp white carved lines create a rhythmic, almost musical silhouette: the girl's sinuous body, oversized blossoms and two staring frogs register as a decorative yet uneasy, dreamlike frieze.
Produced during the German Expressionist moment, this woodcut helped revive the medium as a vehicle for modernist expression—bringing medieval and folk motifs into avant‑garde printmaking and influencing later decorative and graphic art.
