About the Item

Entwurf zu Kleist's "Penthesilea" is a black and white lithograph on paper, realized by the artist, Max Slevogt. From the portfolio “Deutscher Kunstverein zu Berlin “ published by Vereinsgabe, Berlin, in 1904-1905 and composed by a frontispiece, a index, and eleven etchings by Karl Koepping, Leopold Graf Kalckreuth, Hans Herrmann, Franz Skarbina, Ludwig Hofmann, Reinhold Lepsius, Fritz Klimsch, Max Klinger, Heinrich Reifferscheid, Arthur Kampf, in addition to this plate. This beautiful original print representing a human mob due to a bloody battle as the title suggests, demonstrating a very wide gradient of greys and blacks and a very well inking, is titled in blue ink on lower left margin and on lower right has the inscription in ble ink “D.K.V.”. In excellent condition, except for a usual yellowing of the paper on the higher margin, this wonderful modern original print could be a joyful piece for your home collection. Max Slevogt (Landshut 1868 – Leinsweiler 1932) The German Impressionist artist, Max Slevogt, best known as landscapist, together with Lovis Corinth and Max Liebermann, isone of the foremost representatives in Germany of the plein air style. Toward the end of the 1890s when he attended the French artistic world, his palette brightened. He travelled again to Paris in 1900, where he was represented in the German pavilion of the world exhibition with the work Scheherezade, and was strongtly impressed by the Manet's artworks. In 1901 he joined the Berlin Secession. After the outbreak of World War I he was sent as official war painter to the western front, where he searched a r new style appropriate to the expression of the horrors of war. In the same year he became a member of the Prussian Academy of Arts in Berlin. He designed scenery for the performance of Mozart's Don Giovanni in the Dresdner state opera in 1924. In 1929 he was given a large 60th birthday exhibition in the Prussian academy of the arts in Berlin. This artwork is shipped from Italy.
