Max Pechstein

Max Pechstein. Max Pechstein, who was one of the most notable German Expressionist artists and a central figure in the artists group Brucke, was already a successful painter and graphic artist during his lifetime. Franz Marc exclaimed that he was the little Napoleon of Berlin s artist community for his role as a trailblazer of the rebellious New Secession in the early twentieth century. Pechstein s greatest artistic achievements, his life course, and rare documents from the family archive are brought together in this bibliophilic volume to form a new highlight in the series."
