Kirchner volunteered for military service in the First World War, but suffered a breakdown and was discharged. In 1937, his work was branded as \"degenerate\" by the Nazis, and over 600 of his works were removed from German museums. He committed suicide in 1938.\n\nThis oil on canvas painting depicts a gasometer, a large container for storing gas, in a suburban railway setting. The scene is rendered in Kirchner's characteristic Expressionist style, with bold colours and simplified forms. A train curves along the tracks, passing by the gasometer on the right and a church and houses on the left. The sky is a pale wash, and the overall effect is one of dynamism and movement. The composition is somewhat distorted, with the buildings and gasometer appearing to lean and sway. This contributes to the painting's sense of unease and tension.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/naakte-vrouw-nude-woman-meijer-bleekrode\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eNaakte vrouw (Nude Woman) - Meijer Bleekrode — Meijer Bleekrode\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/in-front-of-the-hat-shop-woman-with-red-jacket-and-child-august-macke\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eIn Front of the Hat Shop (Woman with Red Jacket and Child) - August Macke — August Macke\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Ernst Ludwig Kirchner","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":57818356678991,"sku":null,"price":25.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":57818361200975,"sku":null,"price":31.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":57818361233743,"sku":null,"price":40.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ B2 (50x70 cm) \/ -","offer_id":57818361266511,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A1 (59.4 x 84.1  cm) \/ -","offer_id":57818361299279,"sku":null,"price":49.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Gasometer-in-Vorortbahn_Poster_CompositorV1_1780110484196.jpg?v=1780110643","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/products\/gasometer-in-vorortbahn-ernst-ludwig-kirchner","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
