"Dance of Salome, " Rare, Atmospheric Print by Herrmann, Important Innovator
About the Item
Highly atmospheric and charged with sensuality, this Art Nouveau-influenced print by Paul Herrmann (also known as Henri Heran) depicts the infamous dance of Salome at its center, in a diaphanous swirl of drapery and nudity, with two nude male youths in the foreground, and the seated figure of Herod looking on in satisfaction. One can almost smell the decadence and despotism in the air. Herrmann was an important innovator in printmaking, experimenting with color lithography in the 1890s before Munch and others better known for their work. The artist settled in Paris, and took on the name of Henri Heran, to minimize the wariness of French patrons and peers at a time of anti-German sentiment. This is the only example of this print we have seen.

"Rebel", Rare Art Nouveau/Symbolist Print w/ Male Nude by Emma Goitein Dessau
By Emma Goitein Dessau
Located in Philadelphia, PA
A rare work by Emma Goitein Dessau, this color print entitled "Born to Work -- Rebel," depicts a kneeling nude male figure in chains, in the foreground, rebelling against the roiling crowd of nude figures behind him, all caught up in the crush of work and toil. The artist was clearly protesting the demands of modernity, and the toll it was taking on humanity, using a parade of beautifully captured nude figures to make her point. Goitein was German Jewish...
