• A vivid and technically superb colored-pencil drawing with a mysterious aura.
• Friedrich Schröder Sonnenstern is considered one of the most important representatives of Art Brut and Outsider Art.
• The 1959 Paris Surrealism exhibition curated by Breton and Durchamp celebrated him as one of the most significant artists of the 20th century—his buyers included names such as Picasso, Max Ernst, and Henry Miller.
