About the Item

KARL HOFER / Carl Hofer (German 1878-1955) PYRAMID, 1924 Lithograph, signed and titled in pencil. Unknown edition but small. Image 15 1/2 x 10, sheet 18 1/2 x 12 3/4 inches, on somewhat thin laid paper. Very faint thin line in margins well outside image from old mat. Otherwise fresh. Hofer is a German Expressionist artist and was one of those deemed "Degenerate" by the Nazis. His work is primarily figurative and best known for his painting. From Wikipedia: Karl Christian Ludwig Hofer or Carl Hofer (11 October 1878, Karlsruhe – 3 April 1955, Berlin) was a German expressionist painter. He was director of the Berlin Academy of Fine Arts. One of the most prominent painters of expressionism, he never was a member of one of the expressionist painting groups, like "Die Brücke", but was influenced by their painters. His work was among those considered degenerate art by the Nazis, but after World War II he regained recognition as one of the leading German painters. There is much more additional information in Wikipedia.

By Otto Neumann
Located in New Orleans, LA
Otto Neumann (1895-1975) was a German Expressionist painter and printmaker. His monotypes evolved from sharp, angular, black and whites to late abstract prints in a variety of colors. Neumann lived through revolutionary changes in the art world of prewar and postwar Germany. He was a prolific artist in Germany during a time of the country’s unprecedented academic and intellectual growth. His early work shows the influence of both French masters like Cezanne and the contemporary style that was then being developed by German Expressionists like Kirchner. A master printmaker, Neumann was also inspired by the works of Albrecht Durer, whose allegorical subject-matter and unmatched drawing technique Neumann would emulate throughout his career. A lifetime preoccupation with the human figure informs his work, with frieze-like human figures recalling ancient Greek art...
