Otto Dix *
(Gera 1891–1969 Singen)
"Contessa", 1962, lithograph in colour on smooth paper, signed and dated Dix 62, inscribed with ‘Probedruck’ [proof], image size 63 x 39.5 cm, sheet size 70 x 49.9 cm, printed by Roland Ehrhardt, Karsch 291, sight area slightly browned, margin glued all around
The important colour lithograph from a late phase in the artist’s production in an interesting proof variant: the usually dark purple drawing plate is printed twice and slightly offset in black and dark purple in the present example, giving the image an even more painterly character. The blue colour stripes underneath the dress were eliminated for the edition. A superb proof.
