Amsterdamer Waisenmädchen im Garten
Max Liebermann · 1885
Why it's great
Orphan girls sit and walk together in a leafy garden, in the dappled sunshine. This is another version of the orphanage garden theme Max Liebermann loved. He painted it again and again in different lights. It shows his love for the way the light moves through leaves.
