Enclosed with a copy of an expert opinion by Detlev Rosenbach, dated October 25, 2006, who confirms the real-time after presentation of the original: "The drawing is on letterhead on the reverse of a letter that was probably originally addressed to Heinrich Zille. The artist was extremely economical and used all kinds of paper available to him, including wrapping paper, as working material. Fragments of the red estate stamp can still be faintly recognized... This study can be described as particularly successful: the artist has succeeded excellently in expressing the sitter." Male portrait sketch. Early 20th c. Charcoal on writing paper.
