Klassische Moderne – Das vorliegende Werk steht charakteristisch für das Schaffen Heinz Lewerenz', der insbesondere für seine expressionistischen Aquarelle in leuchtender Farbigkeit Bekanntheit erlangt. Der deutsche Künstler studiert Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts an der Kunstgewerbeschule in Bielefeld bei Ludwig Godewols und Hans Perathoner und später, nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg, an der Kunstakademie in Dresden. Aus dieser Zeit stammt auch unser Aquarell, in dessen Entstehungsjahr Lewerenz Teil einer Ausstellung der Künstler-Vereinigung Dresden ist und eine Vielzahl an Waldstücken schuf. 1937 wird ein Großteil der Werke von Heinz Lewerenz von den Nationalsozialisten beschlagnahmt und vernichtet.
