Answer
Agitated is the predominant mood in Kirchner's later work, reflecting the turbulent political and social climate of the Weimar Republic during the 1920s and 1930s. His expressive, emotionally charged brushstrokes and distorted figures convey a sense of unrest and anxiety. Kirchner's use of bold colors and sharp angular lines further accentuates the agitated mood, creating a sense of tension and unease.
