Schlafende am Strand was inspired by Beckmann’s visit to Rimini
on the Adriatic coast of Italy, where he spent the summer of 1927
with his wife Quappi. Both

and the painting remained first in the artist’s and then in Quappi’s possession
and the painting remained first in the artist’s and then in Quappi’s possession
until the end of her life, the drawing now forming part of the collection of Museum
der Bildenden Künste in Leipzig. Quappi, who often featured
as a model in Beckmann’s works, is depicted as an image of beauty and youth.
The sense of simplicity and joie de vivre is palpable as the artist centres
his attention on depicting the simple pleasure of lying on a sunny beach.
