EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Drinkers" by Rudolf Schiestl takes us back to the vibrant nightlife of 1920s Bavaria. The image showcases a dimly lit room, where a group of men sit around a wooden table, engrossed in their camaraderie and the allure of alcohol. The composition exudes an air of mystery with its dark setting illuminated only by the soft glow filtering through a nearby window. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every element captured - from the intricate woodwork on the furniture to the carefully placed bottles and glasses that adorn the table. "The Drinkers" captures not just a moment frozen in time but also explores themes of friendship, indulgence, and perhaps even escapism. Each man's posture tells its own story; some lean forward intently while others rest their hands on chins lost deep in thought. Their expressions hint at shared experiences and unspoken bonds formed over countless nights spent together. Schiestl's use of color adds another layer to this evocative piece, as splashes of turquoise punctuate an otherwise monochromatic scene. This choice highlights both the vibrancy within these individuals' lives as well as their potential struggles with alcoholism. As we gaze upon this lithograph print from Studio Volume 93, we are transported back to an era defined by its unique blend of revelry and introspection. It serves as a poignant reminder that despite our differences throughout history, some human experiences remain
