Karl SCHMIDT-ROTTLUFF - Exlibris Else Weiske

(Bookplate Else Weiske), 1914.
Woodcut on strong wove paper, 13 x 9,5 cm (block). 14 x 10,6 cm (sheet). Reference: Schapire Gebrauchsblätter 37; Gerlinger/Schneider (2005) 136. Provenance: Collection Hermann Gerlinger, with the stamp on verso (Lugt 6032).

In terms of format one of Schmidt-Rottluff's largest bookplates and one of the few that are not designed purely typographically. Schmidt-Rottluff made his first two bookplates for Helene Weiske and her son Günther. In 1905 another bookplate for Helene followed. Günther Weiske (1889-1971) could be won over as a passive member of the Brücke as early as 1906. He emigrated to Edinburgh in Texas in 1910 and married Else Hedwig Hermine Neuhaus there in 1914, for whom Schmidt-Rottluff designed the present bookplate - presumably on the occasion of her marriage to Günther Weiske. The abstract flower motif under the name, atypical for Schmidt-Rottluff's typographic works, possibly refers to this event.
