It was particularly in his early years, that Zille painted his works in watercolors, later only occasionally; he shied away from color and was content to execute his sketches and drawings offhand with pencil, charcoal or chalk. He captures the scenes he found in his "Milljöh"(environemnt) with a keen eye and also adds a fitting comment underneath, a combination of line and word that no artist of his time achieved with such ingenious skill. He is not only interested in the humorous depiction of the proletarian, but also in his "Amüsemang" (amusement). Leisure activities, circus performances, bathing establishments or the little witty moments in the daily grind of the working class in the streets of Berlin show that Zille, despite all the hardships inherent to this social environment, always found a warm humorous and life-affirming side to life. Whether young or old, he captured the respective situation with an equally sympathetic and amused eye.
