Two auction houses in Germany are currently listing works by Ludwig von Hofmann (1861-1945). Villa Grisebach Auktionen, Berlin, has listed an oils on paper study of a standing nude boy (Stehender Junglingsakt) which dates from the 1890's and Ketterer Kunst has listed another of those beautiful pastels by Hofmann titled Badende Jungen (Bathing Youths) which is dated 1915. Enjoy.
