• Technically fascinating work from the "Brücke" days: In a dynamic flow, Heckel put accentuations and contours in strong colors over the glazing and airy gray-brown watercolors.
• Fine example of the extraordinary graphic innovativeness of the "Brücke" artists.
• Heckel"s painting "
Haus mit Turm
" (1908) was confiscated from the "Museum der Bildenen Künste" in Leipzig and has been considered lost since
