There Eduarg Bargheer's style developed from his expressionist early period to a lyrical maturity. His works, now mostly watercolors of landscapes in light translucent colors and hovering between figuration and Abstraction, put Eduard Bargheer aside artists such as Paul Klee and Werner Gilles.
Among the numerous exhibitions of works by Eduard Bargheer, the large retrospective on occasion of his 100th birthday is particularly worthwhile mentioning. It was shown in 2002 as a travelling exhibition in the 'Stiftung Schleswig-Holsteinische Landesmuseen Schloss Gottorf', the Hamburg Kunsthalle and the 'Westfälisches Landesmuseum für Kunst und Kulturgeschichte' in Münster.
