Teaching building in the Atlantic Ocean

People:

Hermann Finsterlin (draughtsman)

Title:

Teaching building in the Atlantic Ocean

Date:

1919

Description:

- The title "Teaching building in the Atlantic Ocean" is taken from the print DR1988:0022:003, which may be a print of this drawing. The inscription "FERNSEHTURM" was used as the alternate title since it would be translated today as "television tower", and this seems an unlikely title for a drawing dated 1919.
