Works by Paula Modersohn-Becker (1876-1907), in the public domain: self-portraits, mothers and children, peasant women and girls of Worpswede, still lifes, landscapes, drawings and etchings published online by the museums that hold them, each linked to its museum record. The photographs come from the museum itself when it publishes them under an open licence or in the public domain, otherwise from Wikimedia Commons (reproductions of two-dimensional public-domain works). Only works that the museum attributes to Paula Modersohn-Becker herself are included. The recto and the verso of a sheet are presented as two works.
