• Only to date known proof of the reverse side of a printing block executed on both sides, which is also part of the Hermann Gerlinger Collection (SHG no. 74).
• In their prints, Schmidt-Rottluff and the "Brücke" artists were able to express their new and unconventional concept of art and breathed new life into the then little popular medium.
• In those years the female nude in the studio was one of the main "Brücke" motifs, as they created a novel and groundbreaking interpretation of the female nude as an independent pictoirial element .
