Information

Terracotta. Height: 50,3 cm (19 ¾ in.). Catalogue raisonné: Schubert 76/77 I 4. With an additional confirmatory certificate by Prof. Dr. Dietrich Schubert, Heidelberg, dated 15 October 2015. Minor retouchings.

In his certificate, Prof. Dr. Dietrich Schubert considers it possible that this example originated from Lehmbruck's studio, i.e. from his estate. It is thus possible that the current work was produced during the artist's lifetime.
