About the Item

Lithograph on vélin paper. Inscription: Unsigned and unnumbered, as issued. Good condition. Notes: From the folio, Kathe Kollwitz, Ten Lithographs. Published by Henry C. Kleemann and Curt Valentin, New York, 1941. KATHE KOLLWITZ (1867-1945) was a German artist who worked with painting, printmaking (including etching, lithography and woodcuts) and sculpture. Her most famous art cycles, including The Weavers and The Peasant War, depict the effects of poverty, hunger and war on the working class. Despite the realism of her early works, her art is now more closely associated with Expressionism. Kollwitz was the first woman not only to be elected to the Prussian Academy of Arts but also to receive honorary professor status. In Paris she moved in the inspirational circle of her fellow student Maria Slavona’s bohemian friends that included famous artists such as Camille Pissarro and the art critic and writer Julius Meier-Graefe. Käthe Kollwitz strolled through private galleries and acquired an early pastel by Pablo Picasso and saw the works of the Neo-Impressionists and Nabis at the great art exhibitions.
