Evening over Potsdam by Lotte Lazerstein

Evening over Potsdam by Lotte Lazerstein

The most outstanding painting of the artist is the 1930 canvas “Evening over Potsdam or the Roof Garden”. Currently, the work is exhibited in the New National Gallery of Berlin.

The plot is simple – a friendly meeting of friends. The masterly work of a young artist shows a romantic friendship and all this is shrouded in light sadness. Potsdam is hazy, the future is unclear and disturbing. Even the dog has sad eyes under the table…

In the profound silence of friends gathered in the roof garden, a feeling of idyll is created. Young people drink wine, they are melancholic and thoughtful, immersed in themselves… The future is unclear, it is like Potsdam covered with mist, clouds have already gathered over the city… And there is a feeling of anxiety of a lost generation, whose youth passed in the Weimar Republic, and maturity comes on the eve of national socialism.

How many feelings a picture of an artist evokes with such an uncomplicated plot… It’s hard to tear your eyes away from this canvas and the viewer is also immersed in thoughts about the past and the future, which is always unclear and hazy…

Lotte Lazerstein cherished this work and never part with it. She was with an artist in exile and always hung on the wall of her modest apartment in the Swedish city of Colmar, where the artist lived at the end of her life.
