- Intimate, large-format sketch from the sought-after Berlin period. - E. L. Kirchner spent the summer months of 1912 on Fehmarn with his partner Erna Schilling, whom he had met at a dance hall in Berlin that same year. - For E. L. Kirchner and the other artists of the "Brücke", the casual nudity outdoors was a major source of inspiration and a characteristic trait of their expressionist work. - In the same year, he also created the painting "Ins Meer Schreitende" (Staatsgalerie Stuttgart) with a similar motif.
