Description
Signed lower right: J. Steinhardt 1920; gleaming sparkling candles in closely juxtaposed lights covered a standing behind the table praying figure behind the open window from the deep blue of the foreground, the view is led to the starry sky, which stands above the jagged dark roofs. The windows of the houses are illuminated in green. The whole picture of a very concentrated sensation, which binds in color to the mysteriously shimmering green in the intimate relationship of dark blue. Signed and dated: 1920
