Ackermann Stuttgart Witthohstaffel 8 Bild 1941"; also fully signed, titled, and dated on the backing board on the reverse. 1941. Sheet dimensions: 25.3 x 18.5 cm. This work by Max Ackermann (1887–1975) was likely created in Hornstaad on Lake Constance; Ackermann joined the Höri Circle in 1936 and moved to the Untersee after being barred from teaching in Stuttgart. However, his Stuttgart studio continued to operate until it was destroyed in a bombing raid in 1943, along with numerous early works by Ackermann. Mounted on cardboard in the upper corners on the reverse; slightly browned in the former mat cutout. - Provenance: From the estate of the Ackermann family.
