About
This vertical jumble of figures is filled with unusual, yet symbolic imagery, as in a dream. A man without hands stands on a ladder holding a fish beside a blind beggar playing two instruments. A drunken woman plays a damaged, stringless cello before a legless man on crutches. And at center, an innocent blond girl – the only figure with open eyes – holds a Pulcinello doll. The Dream reflects Max Beckmann's observations and deeply felt experience of the carnage of World War I, and symbolizes the troubled state of post-War Germany.

We Offer High Quality
Custom Framing
We use the highest quality wood in our modern shop to create custom frames, frame your print with precision-cut acid-free mat board, and mount it behind a UV-blocking semi-gloss plexiglass to protect your art from the sun, dust, pollution, heat, and humidity. Then we add finishing touches like a wall hanging mount, wall friendly bumpers and a protective backing.
Please note that the images of frames displayed here are meant to be representative of those used in our custom-framed products, but may not exactly match the ones in the actual products
