"Sitting Nude with Cushions" (German: "Sitzender Akt mit Kissen") is a notable work by German Expressionist painter August Macke, created in 1911. This painting is a testament to Macke's exploration of color theory and his interest in depicting the human form within the context of his avant-garde aesthetic. The artwork features a nude female figure seated against a backdrop of vibrant, patterned cushions, which exemplify Macke's characteristic use of bright and contrasting colors.

The painting is a reflection of the early 20th-century Expressionist movement, particularly within the group Der Blaue Reiter (The Blue Rider), with which Macke was associated. This group was known for its embrace of abstracted forms and the symbolic use of color to convey emotion and spirituality. In "Sitting Nude with Cushions," Macke's composition harmonizes the natural curves of the human body with the geometric patterns of the surrounding textiles, creating a dynamic interplay between the figure and the space she inhabits.

Macke's work during this period was heavily influenced by his travels to Paris, where he encountered the works of the Fauves and the Cubists, whose artistic innovations resonated with his own artistic inquiries. The influence of Fauvism is particularly evident in the bold, non-naturalistic colors and the emphasis on painterly qualities in "Sitting Nude with Cushions."

The painting is also significant for its place within Macke's oeuvre, as it captures the artist's evolving style and his contributions to the development of modern art in Germany before his untimely death in World War I. "Sitting Nude with Cushions" not only showcases Macke's mastery of color and form but also offers insight into the broader artistic trends that were shaping European art in the years leading up to the Great War.

Today, "Sitting Nude with Cushions" is considered an important work in the study of German Expressionism and is valued for its historical context as well as its aesthetic qualities. The painting is held in high regard by art historians and is frequently exhibited in museums that focus on early 20th-century European art.
