Einblick in ein Gewölbe (View into a Cellar) [p. 5] 

Max Beckmann's "Einblick in ein Gewölbe" is a pencil sketch that appears to be a quick study for a larger work. It depicts a shadowy, atmospheric space, possibly a cellar or vault. The artist uses gestural lines to create a sense of depth and mystery, suggesting a view into a dark and enclosed area. The work is characteristic of Beckmann's expressive style, which often explored themes of isolation and alienation. The sketch's raw and unfinished quality adds to its evocative power, leaving room for the viewer's own interpretation.
