1959, Emil Schumacher, Perabila -- Germanisches Nationalmuseum (Nuremberg)
From the museum label: Emil Schumacher understood painting as an adventure which he embarked on without knowing the final result, without a fixed plan and without an aesthetic or even ideological program. Chance occurrences during the process of painting - such as unexpected mixes of thickly applied, pastose layers of paint, or spontaneously drawn notations on the canvas - were not removed but integrated into the entirety of the picture.
