The sheet "Weidendammbrücke" was commissioned in the run-up to the Berlin anniversary in 1986. A Berlin leaf, a small scene from everyday life in Berlin, eloquent expression of the artist's deep attachment to this city and its inhabitants. The view (of a child) of the Weidendamm bridge over the Spree to the Bodemuseum. Close to the reality, with scarce graphic means, he captures experiences from today's point of view, he explores his Berlin.
