While other Brücke artists chose the landscape as their main subject, for Max Pechstein it was always the human being. In his drawing he captures an intimate moment between mother and child. The chubby-faced toddler sits on its mother's lap, is held by her and lovingly looked at. The relationship of people is a recurring theme in Pechstein's work. And which relationship could be more connected than that of mother and child?
Provenance: Jeschke-Greve & Hauff, Berlin, auction 05.06.2004, lot 402; since then private collection Karlsruhe.
