Georg August Stahl (1903–1981) Born in 1903 in Kassel in the State of Hessen, Germany,^[1] Stahl began drawing and working in water colors at the age of seventeen. He received his formal training at the Academy of Fine Arts in Kassel on a scholarship, with an emphasis on wood cuts. The expressionistic character of this earliest work, bearing a certain reminiscence of German Expressionism of the twenties, could be expected given the importance of the medium in German art of that period. Reminiscent only, for the work shows already an unusual independence, a directness and clarity whereas his watercolors manifest a natural harmony in composition and subtlety in color.
