The edition for the Kestner Gesellschaft in Hanover was probably made in connection with Heckel’s solo exhibition there (paintings and prints) in January / February 1919. Further copies in the following collections: Brücke Museum, Berlin; Museum Folkwang, Esen; Staatliche Kunsthalle, Karlsruhe; Angermuseum, Erfurt.

The motif possibly links memories of the Ostend scenes of soldiers bathing with the scenic conditions of the beach on the Flensburg Fjord.

Published in Paul Küppers, Das Kestnerbuch, Hanover 1919, after p. 16.
