Information

Etching on cream Japan laid paper. 15,9 × 23,7 cm (40,8 × 33,5 cm) (6 ¼ × 9 ⅜ in. (16 ⅛ × 13 ¼ in.)). Signed and titled: Kleinstadt. Catalogue raisonné: Prasse E 37. One of 130 signed copies. From the set: Arno Holz zum sechszigsten Geburtstage gewidmet von deutschen Künstlern. Berlin, Fritz Gurlitt Verlag, 1923 (with the blindstamp). [3647]

Condition Report: Fine, harmonious overall appearance. Good, intense print. The sheet edges without tears or losses. The paper in the lower left corner slightly uneven and folded to the front. On the left and right, parallel to the motif, fine vertical pressure marks from the mat window (each up to 21 cm). In the right margin below the centre, one small greyish stain. Below the motif on the left, a faint vertical crease (4 cm). On the reverse, in the upper corners remnants of former paper mountings, slightly showing through to the front. The sheet mounted with paper adhesive strips onto the support cardboard
