Tulpen in grünem Glas. 1957.
Watercolor over pencil.
Signed and dated in lower right. On mold-made paper by Ingres (with the watermark). 62 x 48 cm (24.4 x 18.8 in), the full sheet. [EH].

• Bright, warm and cheerful colors.
• With the open door in the background, the seemingly ordinary motif gains in formal and intellectual complexity.
• From 1933 onward, Erich Heckel faced increasing repression under the National Socialist regime.
• As part of the "Degenerate Art" campaign, almost 800 of his works were confiscated from German museums, many were destroyed
.

The work is registered in the Erich Heckel Estate, Hemmenhofen on lake Constance. We are grateful to Mrs Renate Ebner for her kind support in cataloging this lot.

PROVENANCE: Private collection Berlin, (gifted from the artist, ever since family-owned).

In good condition. Two small backed tears (approx. 10mm) in the upper left corner of the sheet.
