KLIMSCH, FRITZ
1870 Frankfurt a. M. - 1960 Saig

Title: Versonnen.
Date: 1931 (design).
Technique: Bronze, black-green patinated.
Measurement: Ca. 73 x 65 x 48cm.

Enclosed with this work is a letter from Fritz Klimsch dated January 1940, in which he explains the fact that the sculpture is not signed:
'...With the figure 'Versonnen', it is difficult to attach the name, as the figure has no plinth. Attaching it to the foot was not an option for me, so I left it off....The figure exists in 6 copies'.
We would like to thank Mr. Florian Klimsch, Frankfurt a.M., for the kind, scientific support.

Provenance:
- Private collection, Bavaria (since 1940, directly from the artist)

Literature:
- Braun, Hermann: Fritz Klimsch - Eine Dokumentation, Van Ham Art Publications, Cologne 1991, p. 31
- Cf. Klimsch, Uli: Fritz Klimsch. Die Welt des Bildhauers, Berlin 1938, p. 80, ill.
