“Today and yesterday I worked on the dahlia painting from morning until nightfall, I still have work to do on Sunday and tomorrow. The rainy weather makes everything dark and mysterious, the jugs in strong shine on a deep dark violet-red with matt and luminous lights to the glow of the red dahlias in all tones, everything seems very wide and large."
Peter August Böckstiegel, quoted from: David Riedel, Peter August Böckstiegel. Die Gemälde 1910-1951, Munich 2014, p.262.
