Peter Wever – "Abgestürzt" – Original Hand-Finished Drypoint Etching

Peter Wever (b. 1950, Lüdenscheid, Germany)
Title: Abgestürzt ("Crashed" / "Fallen")
Medium: Drypoint etching with hand-painted acrylic/oil embellishment on paper
Signed: Hand-signed by the artist
Dimensions (framed): Approx. 112 × 56 × 3 cm
Weight: Approx. 8 kg

Large original work by German artist Peter Wever, titled Abgestürzt. The composition depicts a solitary reclining figure within an expressive interior setting, rendered in Wever's characteristic style that combines strong gestural line work, atmospheric colour fields, and psychological narrative.

Wever's technique begins with a mechanically produced drypoint etching from a copper plate, which is then individually overpainted by hand using acrylic and/or oil colours. As a result, every impression within an edition becomes a unique artwork with variations in colour, texture, and emphasis.

The title Abgestürzt ("Crashed" or "Fallen") reflects the artist's recurring exploration of human vulnerability, everyday drama, emotional relationships, and moments of introspection. The work demonstrates Wever's recognizable "less is more" philosophy, where expressive mark-making and selective colour create emotional depth without unnecessary detail.

Presented in its original contemporary frame with double mount and glazing, ready for display.
