Information

Lithograph on firm cream Japan paper. 45,5 × 30,5 cm (56,2 × 49,2 cm) (17 ⅞ × 12 in. (22 ⅛ × 19 ⅜ in.)). Signed. Catalogue raisonné: Wingler/Welz 58. A copy on another paper outside the later editions of 1916/17 and 1918. Motif of sheet 1 (of 11) from the set: O Ewigkeit – Du Donnerwort („Bachkantate”).

Condition Report: Harmonious overall appearance. The lateral sheet edges and the corners in places slightly bumped with accompanying fine creases (up to 15 cm). The upper and the lower edge, each in places thinned and with some losses of substance, probably due to removal of a larger adhesive mounting on the front. Mainly along the edges of the plate, the upper paper layer in places with slight signs of abrasion. The upper right corner slightly folded forwards (0,7 x 1,7 cm) and both upper corners with remnants of former adhesive mountings (recto rests of textile tape; verso rests of paper strips). On the reverse, in places slight, partially coloured scuff marks
