August Robert Ludwig Macke ( 1887 – 1914) was a German Expressionist painter, one of the leading members of the German Expressionist group Der Blaue Reiter ( The Blue Rider ). He lived during a particularly active time for German art: he saw the development of the main German Expressionist movements as well as the arrival of the successive avant-garde movements which were forming in the rest of Europe. As an artist of his time, Macke knew how to integrate into his painting the elements of the avant-garde which most interested him. Like his friend Franz Marc and Otto Soltau, he was one of the young German artists who died in the First World War.
