SAMUEL SCHWARZ (1876-1942) TROTZKI MYN LEVEN. 1930. 34 1/2x20 3/4 inches, 87 1/2x52 3/4 cm. N.V. Uitgeversmy, Em. Querido. Condition B+: restored loss in lower left corner; minor restoration along top edge; pin holes in corners; minor stains and creases at edges. Paper. A Jewish artist who perished in Auschwitz, Schwarz was part of the Bergen School of painters whose characteristic stylizations of Cubism and Expressionism found their way into the artist's graphic work. Here, for the Dutch publication of Leon Trotsky's 1930 autobiography, Schwarz synthesizes his own style with the precepts of the prevailing Russian political posters, and creates one of his most dynamic and powerful images. Modern Dutch 84.
