Tea Rose
This collage is made of all kinds of scraps of paper that Kurt Schwitters gathered from the streets. He took suitcases
full of scavenged trash and objets trouvés with him when he travelled. In the abstract composition of brown, grey, pink and black angular planes, he attached an illustration of a rose. Another fragment identifies it as a tea rose. Such a bit of reality is a light-hearted counterbalance to the sober abstract composition.
