Otto Dix - original pencil drawing - authentic - c1921

This is an original signed pencil drawing by Otto Dix (1891-1969), one of history’s most famous German artists. The drawing is guaranteed to be authentic Dix and is a delightful study of a worse for wear ageing prostitute, with a touch of humour; typical Dix. It is in very good condition for a drawing on paper dating back to 1921, with minor ageing.

Otto Dix is one of our very favourite artists. We have two drawings by Dix in my collection and we are selling this one with a heavy heart. They were purchased many years ago and it is doubtful we will find another for an affordable sum. Dix paintings sell for millions and the value of this drawing will only rise. A similar drawing by Dix sold at auction in recent years for £36,000, making my price very reasonable. We hope that it will go to someone who truly treasures it.
