Inner courtyard of house in St. Germain - August Macke

This small painting is one of the last works by the German artist August Macke. It is a declaration of love to a favourite holiday resort of the young expressionist painter: a house in the coastal village of Ezzahra (or St. Germain) in Tunisia. The male figure kneeling at the bottom of the white staircase is wearing a fez, a traditional headdress.
