Original woodcut by German artist Thilo Friedrich Maatsch; hand-signed in pencil by the artist and dated "28". Maatsch was an advocate of abstract art, constructivism and concrete art. Early in his career he collaborated with artists such as Paul Klee, László Moholy-Nagy, William Wauer and Wassily Kandinsky at the Bauhaus. In the 1930s, the Nazi regime determined that his art work was considered “Entartete Kunst (Degenerate Art)” and was banned, much of it destroyed, and his artistic career halted until after the War. Condition: Excellent; it has never been framed. Carefully stored over the years to protect it from humidity and light. Dimensions: 22,0 x 20,5 cm
