Otto Morach was a Swiss artist best known for his expressionist paintings depicting rural life and mountain landscapes of Switzerland. He was born in Berne in 1887, and first attended the School of Applied Arts in Berne before going on to study at the Académie Colarossi in Paris. His works during the 1920s and 1930s have been classified as a subgenre of expressionist painting, called Neo-Expressionism, characterized by its dark, somber and moody tonality. His most celebrated works include Scenes of the Swiss Jura Mountains, 1930, Mountains in the Bernese Oberland, 1932, and The Swiss Alps at Night, 1936.
