"Strommast, zu .018 gehörend (Power Pole, belonging to .018)" is a pencil drawing by German Expressionist painter Max Beckmann. The drawing is a sketch on a page of Beckmann's sketchbook and is thought to be an early work by the artist. The sketch shows an abstract power pole and is likely a study for one of his later works. This sketch is part of Beckmann's series of sketches on the pages of his sketchbooks, and may have been a study for his famous triptych “Departure” created between 1932 and 1933.
