Brokenbrow, a tragedy by Ernst Toller, translated by Vera Mendel; with drawings by Georg Grosz.
A 1926 London edition of Ernst Toller's tragedy Brokenbrow, published by the Nonesuch Press in Vera Mendel's translation and illustrated by Georg Grosz. The pictures are loose pen-and-ink line drawings of city men in hats and overcoats, with crowded street, bar and staircase scenes. A designer might take their nervous, scratchy contour lines and sharp caricatured faces as a model for expressive, satirical editorial sketching.
