Bildnis Dr. Freundlich. 1918.
Woodcut.
Fechter H 142. Krüger H 206. Signed. On heavy copper plate printing paper. 35.7 x 23.6 cm (14 x 9.2 in). Sheet: 61 x 48,3 cm (24 x 19 in).
From the series "Holzschnitte 1919", published as 13th work of the Gurlitt-Presse in a total edition of 95 copies by Verlag Fritz Gurlitt, Berlin 1919. There are two de-luxe editions of 5 copies each and a standard edition of 75 copies. Apart from the edition, single prints and hand-colored copies (cf. Krüger H 200-211) are also known. [AR].
• Remarkable graphic document of expressionist motif and form.
• Pechstein fully focusses on the head and does without the shoulders of the depicted person.
• The work shows the astronomer and musician Dr. Erwin Finlay-Freundlich, whom the artist portrayed several times.
PROVENANCE: Hermann Gerlinger Collection, Würzburg (with the collector's stamp, Lugt 6032).
EXHIBITION: Buchheim Museum, Bernried (permanent loan from the Hermann Gerlinger Collection, 2017-2022).

In good condition. With minimal mount staining. Paper slightly crimped and wavy in margins and with dents in lower left, these blemishes are largely owed to the making.
