Hans Unger (1872-1936) was one of the leading Symbolist artists in fin-de-siècle Dresden. Salome, and the femme fatale generally, was a common subject in Symbolist art. Unger’s wife and muse, Marie Antonia, was his model for this wonderful print, a rare signed example, and for much of his other work.
