About the Item

Image dimensions: 26.5 x 42.5 cm. Simplicius Among Soldiers from "Intermezzi" is an original print realized by Max Klinger in 1881. Signature and number of the print on plate. Black and white etching and aquatint. Original title: Simplicius unter den Soldaten The artwork is from the portfolio Intermezzi, Opus IV, published by Theo Stroefer's Kunstverlag, Munich, in 1881. Good conditions except for little folds along the margins. The portfolio is composed of 12 plates, unrelated to any conceptual link, whose title is a clear reference to music production. The suite was designed by the engraver and art dealer Herman Sagert. The two initial and final plates are the intermezzos, whilst the other eight depict mythological and literary themes. The plates from 3 to 6 represent centaurs, while from 7 to 10 they illustrate "Simplicius Simplicissimus", a picaresque novel of the lower Baroque style, written in 1668 by Hans Jakob Christoffel von Grimmelshausen, and inspired by the events of the Thirty Years' War. Plate number IX, Simplicius Among Soldiers, represents one of the four plates that illustrate the novel "Simplicius Simplicissimus". The artwork shows Simplicius Simplicio who witnesses the abuses of soldiers against unarmed peasants.
