Why it's great
A fox curls up asleep in the grass, painted in soft blues and purples. Franz Marc made this in 1911, when he was painting animals as if they lived in a more peaceful, spiritual world than ours.

Franz Marc was born in Munich, Germany, and loved painting animals as a symbol of purity. He co-founded the Blue Rider group with Wassily Kandinsky, and he used bold colors like blue and yellow to express feelings. He lived in Bavaria. He died in World War I in 1916 at age 36.
