This print comes from ‘Up to the Light’, a loose leaf folio of book covers created by Schneider for the German writer, Karl May. Schneider was an artist who achieved mainstream critical and commercial success in turn-of-the-century Germany despite its striking homoeroticism, at a time when homosexuality was illegal there.
