In the life of Emil Nolde
The whole life1906
A turn from Impressionism to religious subjects
In 1906 Nolde, who had grown up in a small religious community near the German-Danish border and had read the whole Bible, turned from an Impressionist manner to religious subjects stressing the emotion of the moment, bright colours and two-dimensionality; in his early religious works (1900–1904) he had not yet found his own style and followed models such as Millet and Daumier.

Poisoned water: a brush with death
In 1909, at the age of forty-two, Nolde nearly died after drinking poisoned water; the experience hastened his turn to religious painting.
