• Tucholsky was fascinated by Jeanne Mammen's delicate watercolors and dedicated her a short declaration of love in the weekly “Die Weltbühne” in 1929.
• Intimate everyday scene that allows a peek behind the big city's shiny facade.
• Works by the artist are in renowned international museums and the Jeanne-Mammen-Foundation (Fundation Stadtmuseum Berlin) and the Berlinische Galerie, which has dedicated two grand retrospectives to the artist (1997/98, 2017/18).
