In Wetzlar I. 1933.
Watercolor over pencil.
Signed, dated and titled in the lower right. On laid paper. 46.5 x 60.5 cm (18.3 x 23.8 in), the full sheet. [CH].


• Heckel depicts the idyllic landscape at the “Old Lahn Bridge” in Wetzlar as seen from the river.
• Heckel increasingly traveled as of the 1920s, and showed a stronger preference for landscape subjects in which he sought to combine topographical accuracy with the atmospheric elements.
• Successful period of creation: In 1931, the Chemnitz Kunstverein organized a first retrospective with 100 paintings from the years 1906 to 1930 and a first monograph was published (Ludwig Thormaehlen, in the “Junge Kunst” series).
• By 1934, Heckel showed his works in several solo exhibitions before his works became increasingly subject of Nazi criticism and were presented in the propaganda exhibition “Degenerate Art” in Munich in 1937
.

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