• Impressive format.
• During Kirchner's very first stay on the Stafelalp in 1917, he created 13 woodcuts, which rank among the highlights of Kirchner's oeuvre.
• One of the best-known print portraits from the Davos period.
• Based on a photograph Kirchner took of the Davos farmer Martin Schmid (Roland Scotti, E. L. Kirchner. Das fotografische Werk, Davos 2005, cat. no. 66).
• As the artist did not yet have a printing press at his disposal in Davos, he made the print from the wooden blocks by hand using a roller and bone folder, so that each copy varies slightly in the application of the ink and in its character.
• Eight copies of this woodcut are museum-owned: Rijksmuseum Amsterdam, Art Institute of Chicago, Harvard Art Museum, Cambridge/Mass., Kirchner Museum, Davos, Kunstmuseum Bern, Kupferstichkabinett of the Staatl. Museen zu Berlin, Stiftung Museum Kunstpalast, Düsseldorf, and the Germanisches Nationalmuseum, Nuremberg

During his first stay on the Stafelalp in 1917, Kirchner made a woodcut of the alpine farmer Martin Schmid, a striking document of Kirchner's portrait art with the fascinating Tinzenhorn in the background. And Kirchner not only photographed him, but also his wife, Anna, with their two sons Martin and Hermann, presumably in the summer of 1917. Traces of snow between the beams allow the photo to be dated to the winter of 1918/19. Kirchner returned to Davos in July 1918 after his stay at the sanatorium in Kreuzlingen and lived in the hut that Martin Schmid let him use on the Stafelalp. In September 1920, Kirchner moved into the winter-proof farmhouse "In den Lärchen", which belonged to the Müller family. Hence, each residence is associated with a large number of works, and the variety of media used is also astonishing: in addition to oil paintings, he created woodcuts, etchings, watercolors, drawings, wooden sculptures and carpets. Despite his mental distress and partial paralysis, the first Davos period was extremely fruitful. Kirchner refined his Davos style and increasingly distanced himself from the original "Brücke" style of the Dresden and Berlin periods. [MvL]
