关于这幅画
Bathers were a central subject for Erich Heckel throughout his career. “Boys at the Beach, ” executed a year after the close of World War I, is representative of his radical shift in approach following the war. Heckel's young men appear emaciated, stiff, and tentative; the standing figure cradles his chest as though he is cold or feels shame. Rather than enjoying the nature that surrounds them, the men are depicted turning their backs to the sea and the beach and psychologically distancing themselves from both their world and each other. Heckel’s figures are symbolic of the trauma of the "Great War" and loss of carefree pleasures that followed.

Erich Heckel当时的生活
完整生平May 1915 – November 1918
The Ostend hospital: an artists’ colony
From May 1915 until the end of the war in November 1918 Heckel serves in the Ostend emergency hospital, housed in the railway station and home to a true artists’ colony: the orderlies paint, make woodcuts, read and discuss literature and poetry, and adorn the building with murals and window decorations. As a painter, he is most deeply impressed by the Flemish landscape and the North Sea, especially sunlight penetrating the unusual cloud formations.
1918

Heckel returns to Berlin; the painting Spring (National Gallery, Berlin) is also dated 1918.
