Macke, like Marc,
was enthusiastic about the work of the French Cubist Robert Delaunay.
Macke's artistic interests were directed towards gentle figurations
of women and children. He painted his subjects in domestic, interior
and exterior poses, usually, by applying his bright, warm color in
large, strongly outlined areas, and sometimes using varicolored squares
for bright light in his backgrounds, in the manner of Delaunay.
