Max Pechstein
Max Pechstein (1881-1955) is considered to be one of the most important representatives of German Expressionism and the "bridge". As a successful graduate of the Academy, he joined in the spring of 1906, the legendary artist group founded the previous year by Kirchner, Schmidt-Rottluff and Heckel and Bleyl. Pechstein's "Red House officials" was auctioned at Sotheby's for 419.000 British Pounds in 1999.
