Two Women on the Hillside

Two Women on the Hillside is an oil-on-canvas painting created in 1906 by German painter Franz Marc.

It is part of the Bavarian State Painting Collections and is on a permanent loan at the Franz Marc Museum in Kochel am See.

[1][2] Marc met the fellow painters Marie Schnür and Maria Franck in 1905, who would both later become his wives.

On August 1, 1906, he wrote to Maria Franck: “The picture of you two has already been drawn.”[3] Later he cut up the large painting.

In 1985 the Bayerische Staatsgemäldesammlungen acquired the painting from the estate of Maria Marc, née Franck.
