• In Schmidt-Rottluff's late work, still lifes play a central role; the artist increasingly turns to objects he finds in his immediate surroundings.
• Powerful graphic expression, to which the delicate colors are subordinate.
• In a private collection for more than 40 years.

The work is documented in the archive of the Karl and Emy Schmidt-Rottluff Foundation, Berlin.
