"These drawings are undoubtedly enduring in themselves, but they are committed to the same content as the figures: The sensual understanding of the body in space and as a breathing volume. Often they precede the realisation of a sculptural form as a first step, just as often they paraphrase a pictorial idea in numerous variations, presenting more possibilities than a sculptor can create in figures throughout his whole life." *
