...just couldn't take it any more. One night I was found semiconscious, partially buried in a dung pit. ... I was placed in an asylum for war-crazed, shell-shocked and insane soldiers." Grosz emerged from the asylum a pale hurricane of rage. He had reason to hate the men who had been on top in Germany, and "among the masses I found scorn, mockery, fear, oppression, falsehood, betrayal, lies and filth-in abundance." In beaten Germany he found an abundance of subjects, drew thousands of dagger-sharp drawings of pig-faced whores, vulpine businessmen, phthisical Army officers with...

His style is a restrained off-blue (he calls it "flatsy through the nose...
