"During the first years of the Brücke, lithography was his [=Schmidt-Rottluff's] main discipline, because he was able to wrest all its inherent expressive possibilities from it in the first impetuous attack [..]. "

Lower center with a somewhat larger, professionally closed tear in the lower margin. Slightly browned, more obvious in the wide margin, there also slightly rubbed and soiled, as well as with isolated pressure marks from the lithographic.
