Oil colours on ribbed laid paper 26.6 x 19.6 cm Framed under glass. Monogrammed and dated 'FWS 23' in black in the depiction on the left. - Sheet slightly irregularly cut; the lower left corner reattached and restored.

Following the kind confirmation by Uli Bohnen, the work, which was previously unknown to him, can be assigned to other comparable abstract compositions from the inflation year 1923, especially in its arrangement and technique (Uli Bohnen, Franz W. Seiwert 1894-1933, Leben und Werk, exhib. cat. Kölnischer Kunstverein, Cologne 1978, cf. the works on paper p. 120, cat. nos. 35 - 38).
