Description
The restaurant 'Zille Stube' is located on the Spreeufer in the Nikolaiviertel of Berlin. The restaurant is named after Rudolf Heinrich Zille (1858-1929) a German illustrator and photographer. Zille became best known for his often funny drawings, catching the characteristics of people, especially stereotypes mainly from Berlin.
He was the first to portray the desperate social environment of the Berliner Mietskasernen (tenement barracks), buildings packed with sometimes a dozen persons per room who fled from the rural regions to the expanding industrial metropolis during the late 19th-early 20th centuries.
His work reminds me of the work of Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (1864-1901) a French painter, printmaker, draftsman, and illustrator who did similar work, but limited himself primarily to the portrayal of the decadent and theatrical life of working girls in the late 19th century Paris.
