Description: Originally from a sketchbook that Dix employed at the Front when serving with the field artillery during the First World War, this apocalyptic landscape was the first mainstream twentieth-century drawing to be acquired for the Barber collection. In its fragmented and interlocking planes it owes much to the innovations of the French Cubist painters. Inscriptions / Translations: Inscriptions, sale stamps &c: signed in black chalk [fragment], I.r.: DI; inscribed in pencil, l. r. : [?]; inscribed in pencil, l. l.: Z16/74 700
