About the book >.>.> The twentieth-century German paintings all of which have been acquired since the 1960s by the present Baron Thyssen form the core of the remarkable modern holdings of the Thyssen- Bornemisza Collection. Works by such diverse artists as Klee Beckmann Meidner Kirchner Schmidt-Rottluff Pechstein Franz Marc Grosz and Dix are augmented by examples of other artists working within the German tradition – Kandinsky. Munch Ensor Feininger van Dongen and Jawlensky. The focus of this catalogue the latest in the series embracing the whole of the Thyssen-Bornemisza Collection is the exhaustive entries on individual works. Being in some cases extended essays in themselves these entries bring to light much new information based on first-hand documentary and archival research enabling the author to reassess many of the Collection’s more problematic works. Each of the 118 subjects is reproduced in colour and the accompanying 125 comparative figures are illustrated in black and white. (OS)
