"This volume explores the vast array of printmaking activity in Germany during a period of profound social transformation. Between the end of World War I and the Nazi ascendancy to power, printmaking took on an unprecedented significance in Germany. Printmakers created works in a wide variety of styles to satisfy the already established art market for quality "art prints" and the rising new market for prints that communicated political ideology. The catalogue includes reproductions of 143 woodcuts, lithographs, etchings and linoleum cuts from private and public collections worldwide. Works by prominent artists and printmakers including Max Beckmann, George Grosz, and Kaethe Kollwitz, as well as lesser-known printmakers." Very good plus, clean, crisp.
