Bronze with a golden brwon patina. Inscribed “Kollwitz” in capitals on the lower edge and with the foundry mark “H. Noack Berlin”. 34.8 x 31.6 x 8.5 cm.
Posthumously cast by art foundry Noack, Berlin. [SM].
Dr. Annette Seeler, author of the catalogue raisonné of sculptures, confirmed after a personal inspection of the cast that, in her opinion, it is an authorized posthumous reproduction based on model IV.A, which the art foundry Hermann Noack in Berlin used from the winter of 1958/59 onwards.
