WERNER ROHDE, (1906-1990)

[ translate ]

On the Umbrella's Point

On the Umbrella's Point, c. 1928
Vintage gelatin silver print, inscribed 'Mein Freund der Regenschirm!' ('My Friend the Umbrella!') dated '1930' by the artist, credit, and various notations in an unknown hand in pencil on the verso.
16.5 x 11.7cm (6 1/2 x 4 5/8in)
sheet 17.8 x 12.7cm (7 x 5in)

Provenance
Paul Hertzmann, San Francisco.
Private collection, North Carolina.

This extraordinary image of On the Umbrella's Point was probably taken at the same time as another great work by Rohde, Dunkle Figur, dated 1928, which was originally part of the Thomas Walther Collection and later acquired by The Museum of Modern Art, New York.

Another print of Dunkle Figur, sold in Germany in June 2015, set an auction record for the artist of over $200,000. Vintage photographs of this calibre by Rohde are extremely rare.
