• As in his paintings, Jawlensky also strives to stylize female beauty in his drawings of female nudes.
• From the estate of Lisa Kümmel (1897-1944): Alexej von Jawlensky's model, assistant, and close confidante.
• Part of a Hessian private collection for almost 60 years.
• Important date of origin: Jawlensky co-founded the “Neue Künstlervereinigung München” in 1909, his pictures were included in the “Blauer Reiter” exhibition tour in 1912 and he took part in Herwarth Walden's “Erster Deutscher Herbstsalon” in Berlin in 1913.

With a few tiny brown spots. With a small tear (approx. 1.2 cm) in the upper center of the sheet. Verso of the sheet corners with residues of an earlier mounting, slightly pressing through to recto and slightly shining through on recto.
