Description
Nolde's colour lithographs from around 1913 represent a high point of Expressionist printmaking. The lithography technique allowed him a spontaneous creative process that was similar to watercolour and oil painting and enabled translucent nuances and painterly effects by diluting the printing ink. The large-format lithograph "Dealer" is also one of these special sheets. The copy on offer here is also one of the few proofs that Nolde printed on the reverse of a writing model. Only 45 numbered copies were published in the subsequent edition. In 1925/26, the artist then overprinted a few more copies of the edition as well as some of the proofs with a fourth stone with oblique colour areas in different shades. Our unoverprinted proof from 1913 therefore has great rarity value.
One of the few proofs not subsequently overprinted. Very rare.
