Lot Essay

"Kasbek, a 5,000 meter high mountain in Georgina Russia, undoubtedly was the name of a restaurant of night spot owned by Russian emigrés, of which after the Russian Revolution there were many in Germany, particularly in Berlin. The woman is Naila, 'Frau H.M.'."
- James Hofmaier, in Max Beckmann: Catalogue raisonné of his Prints, p. 696.
