Original and period. Beautiful printing. RARE cover. This is a wonderful example of the artist’s play with light by adding jarring spots of contrast against evenly warm tones. Tue setting is so natural and relaxed in the foreground; oblivious to the worker’s in the field in the distance.
 
"Wochenschrift für Kunst und Leben" (Weekly for Art and Life) is a title, not a specific publication. It refers to a type of periodical that focuses on both artistic expression and aspects of daily life. Several publications have used variations of this title or similar themes. One notable example is "Jugend," a Munich-based illustrated weekly founded by Georg Hirth. It ran from 1896 to 1940.
