Collotype:
Collotype, also known as photogravure, is a high-precision printing process that is primarily used in the art and photography industry. It is based on the principle of photochemistry. First, a transparent negative or positive of the desired image is produced. This is placed on a coated printing plate and exposed to UV light. Where the light hits the coating, it hardens and forms a resistant layer. After exposure, the plate is developed, whereby the unexposed areas are washed away while the hardened layer is retained. The plate is then coloured and printed on special paper. Collotype printing enables a high level of detail and tonal reproduction, which makes it particularly suitable for reproducing works of art and photographs. Despite its complex production process, collotype printing offers exceptional image quality and durability.
Max Beckmann:
Max Beckmann, a significant German painter of the 20th century, is renowned for his powerful expressionist works. His art is thematically related to artists like George Grosz and Otto Dix, who also shaped Expressionism and New Objectivity. Similar expressive approaches are found in the works of Oskar Kokoschka and Egon Schiele.
Beckmann's work also connects with Ernst Ludwig Kirchner and Emil Nolde of "Die Brücke," as well as Edvard Munch and James Ensor, known for their emotional and psychological themes. The innovative styles of Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque, alongside the symbolic abstraction of Marc Chagall and Wassily Kandinsky, are also influential. Further connections include Käthe Kollwitz and Gabriele Münter's social critiques, Paul Klee and Lyonel Feininger's blend of abstraction and figuration, and the experiments with color and form by Henri Matisse and Fernand Léger. The narrative works of Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo, as well as the surrealism of Giorgio de Chirico, René Magritte, and Salvador Dalí, also resonate with Beckmann's themes.

Seller's Story
We have been operating several online shops in the art trade for over 20 years. On the one hand, we specialize in rare art prints, exhibition posters and collectible reproductions, and on the other hand, we trade in art editions and originals by well-known contemporary artists.
The works we offer all come from the respective publishers, art galleries and institutions such as museums that published them in close cooperation with the artists. The works you find with us are often several decades old, in perfect or good condition and without a previous private owner.
We place particular emphasis on professional packaging. Nothing is more annoying than purchasing a rare print that arrives damaged due to poor or inadequate packaging.
If you have any questions about the works on offer, we are always happy to help you!
