A Josef Achmann Bather

A woodcut by German expressionist Josef Achmann depicts a nude bather standing in a brook or river. The technique is bold and the composition is visually-interesting throughout. The Nazis considered modernist art to be degenerate and they did not permit the public exhibition of Achmann's work once they consolidated power in 1935. Achmann's work was not included in the Nazi's exhibition of Degenerate Art in 1937.
