About the artwork
Max Beckmann is the artist behind "Princess Ursula Von Bärwalde Mourning for King Jerum", dated 1923. Background on Illustration: Printing methods such as woodcut, engraving, lithography, and photomechanical reproduction each shaped how illustrators worked.

Dada and Surrealism followed the First World War, the Bauhaus school was founded in 1919, and Art Deco became the fashionable decorative style of the 1920s and 1930s.
