Zille, Heinrich 14 figure studies 14 sheets. Various techniques on different types of paper, mounted together with 1 sheet of a letter by Heinrich Zille in 1 mat. Up to 22 x 14.5 cm. 6 sheets bearing the estate stamp (partly fragments, partly faded) “Heinrich Zille” on the reverse (Rosenbach 1, Lugt 2676b). A man in a pub, ladies in large hats and portly gentlemen, a mother with a child, cheeky street urchins, strollers—a colorful panoply of the most diverse Berlin characters gathered on scrap paper, small slips, or fragments. Sometimes sketched as isolated details and often without further context, Zille depicts the figures of everyday Berlin life so characteristic of his work, with his very own, friendly eye for the essential and with a confident stroke. The reverse side features fragments of other drawings by the artist.
