Lot 4188, Auction  124, Hoepffner, Marta, Portrait of the actor, author and cabaret comedian Werner Finck

Portrait of the actor, author and cabaret comedian Werner Finck (1902-1978). 1940s. Vintage gelatin silver print. 14,8 x 11,2 cm. Photographer's/copyright stamp and annotated in pencil on the verso.

Alongside artists such as Hans Deppe, Rudolf Platte, and Robert A. Stemmle, Werner Finck founded the cabaret Die Katakombe in 1929. Serving as the conferencier, Finck’s critical and subtly irreverent remarks about the National Socialists contributed to the cabaret’s success, making him an early thorn in their side. He often defied authority by daring Gestapo informers in the audience to write down every word he said. In 1935, the cabaret was closed down by Joseph Goebbels. – Corners slightly bumped, indentation from paper clip in left edge mid-level, minimal mirroring only visible at an angle, otherwise in good condition.
