[JS]. • Rare print: one of only 3 known hand-printed proofs, the only one in black alongside two others in brown. • The prime “Brücke” period between Dresden and Berlin: In 1911, Kirchner moved from the art metropolis of Dresden to the dynamic city of Berlin. • Excellent provenance: formerly in the collection of Gustav Schiefler, Hamburg, author of Kirchner’s first catalogue raisonné of prints. • The fascination with dance: obsessed with the international dance performances in variety theaters, Kirchner’s dance scenes are today among the highlights of Expressionism. • The closely related painting “Dance in the Variety Theater” (1911, Kunstmuseum Basel) achieved one of the artist’s highest international hammer prices in 2024. We are grateful to Prof. Dr. Günther Gercken for his kind assistance. PROVENANCE: Collection of Gustav Schiefler, Hamburg (directly from the artist).
