Description
Classical Modernism
Lewerenz, Heinz
Village landscape. 1924. Watercolour on handmade paper. 50 x 65 cm. Signed and dated. - Corners and edges show slight tears in places; corners have small areas of loss in places; reverse shows traces of former mounting; paper is slightly browned and stained. Overall in good condition, with vibrant colours.
This work is characteristic of Heinz Lewerenz’s oeuvre; he is particularly renowned for his Expressionist watercolours in vibrant colours. The German artist studied at the School of Applied Arts in Bielefeld under Ludwig Godewols and Hans Perathoner in the early 20th century and later, after the First World War, at the Dresden Academy of Fine Arts. Our watercolour also dates from this period; in the year it was painted, Lewerenz took part in an exhibition organised by the Dresden Artists’ Association and produced a large number of forest scenes. In 1937, a large proportion of Heinz Lewerenz’s works were confiscated and destroyed by the Nazis.
