Kirchner began to express his ideas in a more abstract form. • Inspired by the contemporary works of Pablo Picasso and the modern expressive dance that was widespread at the time. • Dance had already played an important role in Kirchner’s oeuvre since the scenes from the dance cafés and variety theaters in Dresden around 1905. • Closely related in subject matter to the later painting of the same name (Gordon 933). The work is documented in the Ernst Ludwig Kirchner Archive, Wichtrach/Bern. PROVENANCE: Artist’s estate (Davos 1938, Kunstmuseum Basel 1946, with the estate stamp on the reverse).
