“The Church of St. Mary in Bonn in Snow” is an oil painting on canvas created by the artist August Macke in 1911. This cityscape, rendered in the Expressionist style, measures 80 by 101.5 centimeters and is currently housed in the Kunsthalle Hamburg in Hamburg, Germany.
The artwork depicts a serene, snow-covered urban scene, dominated by a view of houses with sloping, snow-blanketed rooftops. In the background, two church spires rise above the buildings, contributing to the central focal point. The composition is characterized by its geometric simplicity and muted color palette, with earthy tones contrasting against the white of the snow. The use of bold, linear shapes and the interplay of light and shadow embody the Expressionist movement, evoking a calm yet vivid atmosphere typical of Macke’s cityscapes.
