Etching 1914. Very beautiful toned impression with a wide boarder. Only 6 impressions were known to Gercken. The etching is a composition of the apartment of Botho Graef in Jena where Graef was a Professor of Archeology at the University. He and his partner, Hugo Biallowons were very close friends of Kirchner.
Born in Aschaffenberg in Bavaria, German artist Kirchner was painter and printmaker, and one of the leading figures in the 20th Century Expressionist movement. He originally studied architecture at the Königliche Technische Hochschule, but became more interested in their wider range of study subjects, including freehand drawing, perspective drawing and art history.
