Paula Modersohn-Becker lived for most of her life in the small village of Worpswede, about twenty miles north of Bremen. She became fully integrated into the artists' colony there, and due to the fact that the men of the village worked on the land all day, the models for her paintings were usually the peasant women and their children who remained at home. As a result, portraits of women, as in Mädchenkopf zwischen Birken, and intimate mother and child groups are the main themes in Modersohn-Becker's oeuvre.
