Two Original Erotic Watercolors

No Image
  • Germany , 1920
By
Germany, 1920. Unique. Near Fine. Unique. While there is no collaborating information, the images came from a German collector who stated that they images were from the Weimar era and the images are completely consistent with that as is the paper/card used. "The Weimar Era came to a near crashing halt with the appointment of Hitler to the Chancellorship in January 1933, but as radically and rapidly as the change in German life with that fateful event, it was not as if the louche aspects of Berliner Kultur ceased instantaneously. Only really with the Night of a Thousand Daggers a year and a few months later did the "degenerate" element run for cover." Also of obvious interest is the prodigiously transgender nature of one of the two images. Both mounted, one shows very minor toning to the paper, else bright and clean. Hand watercolored images. Approx. 4.75x10 and 3.75x7.25.
