Design for a yellow and orange tiled stove

circa 1920-1921

- Design for a tall, rectangular stove, decorated with yellow and orange tiles. The blue rectangle on the lower right side probably represents the stove door.
- The subject of this drawing is identified as a tiled stove by the inscription "Ofen" (stove). This inscription, probably by the draughtsman, occurs on several of the drawings in the group DR1988:0155 - DR1988:0209, as does the inscription "Kachelofen" (tiled stove). Henze illustrates examples of "Kachelofen" which are similar to this one in size and proportion (fig. 105, p.98 and fig. 114, p.103).
