Radierung Etching
Frontansicht des Berliner Schlosses
Frontal View of the Royal Residence in Berlin
of their own. The artist's range of expression is unusually wide.
Beside the magnificent silhouette of the horse-tamers of "Monte
Cavallo" rearing against the light background as they strive
upwards, we find a still-life of the Park at "Herrenhausen", a
composition in broad horizontal lines. Walter Klinkert is just as
skilful in portraying the pomposity of Eosander's facade with
the portals of Berlin's former Imperial Palace as he is in
depicting Berlin tenement houses that have seen better days
and now stand mournfully like neglected palazzi along the
embankments of gloomy canals or gaze sadly into railway-
yards. Gifted as this artist is he can make a thing of beauty
