Knabe, ein Gefäß formend (19. Jahresblatt). 1949.
Woodcut.
Ebner/Gabelmann 936 H. Dube H 393. Signed and inscribed "Mit herzlichen Wünschen Siddi und Erich Heckel". Dated "1950" in the plate. On off-white paper. 16.8 x 12.1 cm (6.6 x 4.7 in). Sheet: 20,6 x 15,5 cm (8,1 x 6,1 in).
Published as 19th annual sheet. In 1930, Heckel started the tradition of sending a print, usually a woodcut, with a symbolic message as New Year greeting to friends. Up until 1968, some 38 of these "Jahresblätter" (Annual Sheets) were made.
• Heckel sent this annual sheet with greetings for 1950 to friends and collectors, the depiction with an almost ancient appeal shows a boy making pottery and presumably hints at his new teaching activites at the Karlsruhe Art Academy.
• Another copy of this woodcut is at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.
