Max Beckmann (1884 Leipzig - 1950 New York)
'Tauentzienstraße', Lithografie auf Papier, 30,5 cm x 33,5 cm Plattenmaß, 32,5 cm x 34 cm Passepartoutinnenmaß, Probedruck der Lithografie (von 1912), signiert, 09 datiert, montiert, Kopie des Kaufbeleges anbei, Provenienz: Kunsthandel Ilse Schweinsteiger, München; Literatur: Wvz. Hofmaier 51; Gollwitz 32.

Nach dem Besuch der Weimarer Akademie und Reisen nach Frankreich, Italien und die Schweiz, ließ sich Max Beckmann in Berlin nieder. Die titelgebende 'Tauentzienstraße' wurde bereits in den 1860er Jahren in Berlin angelegt und ist bis heute eine zentrale Ader der Stadt. Der auf 1909 datierte Probedruck zeigt eine elegant gekleidete Personengruppe, die auf eben dieser Einkaufsstraße flaniert. Als bekanntestes Warenhaus Deutschlands wurde dort das KaDeWe errichtet. Zu sehen sind Frauen mit adretten Kopfbedeckungen, Herren mit Hut, Gehstock und Anzug, sowie Schaufenster im Hintergrund der Szenerie. Eben dieser Probedruck wird 1912 als Lithografie erstellt und nimmt auf diese Weise weiter Bezug auf das ebenfalls im Werkverzeichnis des Künstlers genannte Gemälde der 'Tauentzienstraße'.




Max Beckmann (1884 Leipzig - 1950 New York)
Tauentzienstraße, lithograph on paper, 30,5 cm x 33.5 cm proof print of the lithograph (from 1912), signed, 09 dated, mounted, Provenance: Kunsthandel Ilse Schweinsteiger, Munich, copy of proof of purchase enclosed, WVZ Hofmaier 51/ Gollwitz 32.

After attending the Weimar Academy and travelling to France, Italy and Switzerland, Max Beckmann settled down in Berlin. The titled 'Tauentzienstraße' was laid out in Berlin as early as the 1860s and remains a central artery of the city to this day. The proof print, dated 1909, shows an elegantly dressed group of people strolling along this shopping street. The KaDeWe, Germany's most famous department stores', was just built there. Women with dapper headdresses, gentlemen with hats, walking sticks and suits, as well as shop windows in the background of the scene can be seen. This print was produced as a lithograph in 1912 and in this way, it makes further reference to the painting of 'Tauentzienstraße', which is also mentioned in the artist's catalogue raisonné.
