Erich Wessel, Hamburg, 1906-1985, "o.T.", 1941, oil on hardboard, shows a farmhouse with a ladder cart in the village of Garstedt south of Hamburg in late impressionist painting. Wessel received his training at the Hamburg State Art School under Arthur Illies. Painting trips took him to Holland and Italy. His painting and graphics are characterized by sketchy, loose brush and pencil movements. In his painting style he creates an impressive balance between light and shadow.
