איה סויקה, מקס פצ'שטיין ה- Catalgoue raisonne of paintings oil, כרך ב' 1919–1954, מינכן, 2011, מס'. 1949/12 עמ' 490, מאויר
"Alte Fischerhütten" (1949) מאת מקס פכשטיין הוא ציור שמן על בד שבו האמן הופך צביר צנוע של בקתות דייגים שחוקות למחקר של אור, צורה ואווירה. משיכות מכחול רחבות וקצביות משרטטות את הקורות השחוקות וגגות הקש, בעוד שמיים מכוסי לבנדר וורוד מעניקים לסצנה זוהר שקט, כמעט מדיטטיבי. קווי המתאר הנועזים והפרספקטיבה השטוחה של פכשטיין ממותנים על ידי איפוק מסוף הקריירה שלו, המאפשר לגיאומטריה הפשוטה של ​​דיונות, בקתות וים להדהד עם שלווה כמעט נצחית.




למרות שצוירה בשנת 1949, יצירה זו מתייחסת למוטיב שפצשטיין חקר לראשונה בין השנים 1927 ו-1930 במהלך קיצים בחוף הבלטי ובכפר רואו (Rowe) עם הציורים "Herbstabend" (1927) ו-"Getreideernte" (1930). במכתב מאותה תקופה מוקדמת יותר הוא כתב על השראתו:




"בקתת דייגים קטנה וריקה על הלגונה, שמרטין סקות' הקדיש לי... שם הרגשתי לראשונה את הקצב הנצחי והמרגיע של הים." (בתרגום)




על ידי ביקור חוזר במבנים צנועים אלה בעשור האחרון לחייו, פכשטיין משלב את הכוח האלמנטרי של הרוח, החול והים עם שליטה מרשימה בצבע ובצורה. "הביתן הפישר האלטה" עומד אפוא כשיאה נוגעת ללב של הדיאלוג שלו לאורך כל חייו עם אדריכלות עממית ונופים אלמנטריים, עדות מתמשכת לחזונו את גדולתו השקטה של ​​הטבע.
