• Made the year that was crucial for Baumeister, as he increasingly devoted himself to hand drawings after the defamation as painter
• Baumeister virtuously explores the possibilities of the simple, discolored materials of charcoal and pencil and gives them an impressively nuanced suggestive power
• Primal symbolic and organic forms, etc. inspired by prehistoric painting, shaped the important series of "Eidos" pictures from 1938 to 1941.
