EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration, titled "A Duck's Egg," is a rare and intriguing piece of historical art from the Kirchner Album of twelve prints, which were issued by The Sketch during World War I. Created by the renowned German artist Raphael Kirchner, this illustration depicts a suspended duck egg, delicately tied with a pink ribbon. Two stockinged legs dangle from the bottom of the egg, adding an element of whimsy and mystery to the image. The precise date of this illustration is 1914, and it was one of twelve prints that were issued by The Sketch as part of a series. The Kirchner Album is an important historical record of the early 20th century, providing a unique perspective on the world during a time of great upheaval. The use of a pink ribbon to tie the egg adds a touch of elegance and femininity to the image, making it a striking and memorable piece. The suspension of the egg also adds an element of intrigue, as if the egg is about to hatch at any moment. This illustration is a testament to the artistic talent of Raphael Kirchner and the unique perspective he brought to his work. It is a reminder of the power of art to transport us to another time and place, and to inspire our imaginations. The Kirchner Album of twelve prints is an important historical record, and this illustration of a suspended duck egg is a standout piece from the collection. It is a reminder of the beauty and wonder of the world around us, even in the midst of great turmoil and change.
