For 2,000 DM you can acquire from me a watercolor (one of my more recent works) or two hand-drawn drawings.” Intersecting folds, block of toning over signature, tape remnants to bottom, scattered creasing and toning, and Dix’s signature a couple shades lighter than text, otherwise very good condition.
