The well-known silhouette of Brahms on his way to the Red Hedgehog Tavern in Vienna, issued by Werkmeisters Kunstverlag, Berlin. Silhouette laid down to publisher's heavy board with garland imprint, signed and titled in ink. The image, a charming caricature, depicts the aging Brahms in black walking resolutely, accompanied by a curious red hedgehog. Brahms' favourite restaurant was called Zum Roten Igel - The Red Hedgehog, but Böhler probably meant to highlight Brahms' prickly personality as well. 22 x 30 cm. Corners and edges a little chipped, else fine.
