Der Zeichner is a superb etching made around 1900 by an unknown author, but surely in the circle of Max Klinger (Leipzig, 1857 - Grossjena, 1920). Title on plate on the lower margin at the center. Posthumous impression of a matrix by an unknown author. The style of this print refers to the Griffelkunst and to Max Klinger's concept of the "school of stylus". In particular, Saschia Schneider of the circle of Max Klinger stands out, because he placed male nudity at the center of his production and of his formal research. The title Der Zeichner recalls Klinger's treaty "Malerei und Zeichnung" and all the related meanings, that is, it combines, in the figuration and in the poetics, the liberating dictates and instances of the so-called reform of life with the neo-Greek cult of the body, carried out by Saschia Schneider himself and by German magazines, such as "Die Schonheit" and "Der Eigene". Very interesting work, made with an infinite variety of strokes and a wide range of shades, from black to white. In excellent conditions, and in good general preservation, except for some minimal marginal tears and marginal folds.
