This lithograph, titled "Crossing the Rhine 1918 Return to the Homeland," is characteristic of Hansi's work. The scene is both narrative and symbolic. The work is executed in the tradition of early 20th-century Alsatian silhouette cutouts.
This authentic, antique piece retains its original frame and glass. It bears Hansi's signature, dated 1937, and a dedication.
Jean-Jacques Waltz, also known as Hansi or Uncle Hansi (1873-1951), was an Alsatian and French illustrator. Primarily known for his drawings of idyllic village scenes and his biting anti-German caricatures, he was also a talented watercolorist.
