See:
Max Haller, Rudolf Wacker 1893–1939, Neufeld-Verlag, 1971, most probably identical with the cat. rais. no. 218

Provenance:
Yolande Georgette Dunant (1917–1990), Lucerne

1931 Christmas gift from Rudolf Wacker to Yolande Dunant – the Dunant patron family’s daughter (near Lucerne) – thence by descent

We are grateful to Dr. Jürgen Thaler from the Vorarlberger Landesbibliothek for this information.

The proportions of the objects in a still life can drift into the unreal despite their adherence to natural scale. Things can become huge and tiny – the painting contains their scale. Still lifes give us more freedom than landscapes or portraits, because we are involved from the very composition of the subject onwards, we are in charge of its construction from the beginning. (It is good that it happens in the silence of the studio, because people do not care about our architectural plans. They have their purpose in mind: to a skull a rusty sword and ivy, [...]) Rudolf Wacker
