The following 4 works by Arvid Gutschow are from a series of ship motifs which Gutschow
displayed at the Stuttgarter Werkbund exhibition "Film und Foto" in 1929. The photographs
originally come from the estate of Emil Szittya who was active for Alfred Flechtheim's
legendary magazine "Der Querschnitt" as well as for Paul Westheim's "Kunstblatt".
