Max Klinger (1857–1920) - Durch Gebirge

Max Klinger (Leipzig 1857–1920 Großjena)

"Durch Gebirge" [Through the Mountains], 1915.

Etching (for the lines) and aquatint (for shading, gradations, and tones).
From the series *Zelt* (Opus XIV, Part 1, no. 19).

Amsler & Ruthardt en Berlín, 1916.
Printer: Otto Felsing, Berlin, 1916.

In an antique frame with glass: 34 x 30 cm.
Mounted on a passe-partout (with gold leaf?). Mat window size: 21.5 x 15.5 cm.

The masterful use of this mixed technique is a hallmark of Klinger, who elevated printmaking to a premier artistic category during the era of European Symbolism. Klinger combined real-world landscapes with mysterious, allegorical, or fantastical elements. In prints such as this one, the natural environment is transformed into a psychological space, charged with tension and a timeless sense of mystery.

Klinger is considered a vital bridge to the avant-garde movements of the 20th century, having directly influenced artists of the stature of Giorgio de Chirico, Salvador Dalí, and Max Ernst.
