Zille is one of the best-known Berliners of the first half of the 20th century and, along with Claire Waldoff, with whom he was friends, is one of the Berlin originals. He is immortalised in numerous honours in the German capital. With his drawings he reached both the upper educated bourgeoisie and the "ordinary people", who served as grateful subjects for him.
Rudolf Heinrich Zille (10 January 1858 9 August 1929) was a German illustrator, caricaturist, lithographer and photographer. Zille became best known for his (often funny) drawings, catching the characteristics of people, especially "stereotypes", mainly from Berlin and many of them published in the German weekly satirical newspaper Simplicissimus.
