• Watercolor and charcoal complement each other in a way that goes far beyond the technical conception of a drawing with watercolors.
• Fascinating form and surface contrasts.
• Landscapes were Erich Heckel's preferred subjects in the early 1940s.
• Together with Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Karl Schmidt-Rottluff and Fritz Bleyl, Erich Heckel founded the expressionist artist group "Brücke" in 1905.
