A master of color and an ambitious cosmopolite: Hans Purrmann (1880–1966) was an authoritative figure who forged links in European modernism both as an artist and a personality, as a stylist and a figure of social integration. This volume presents a richly illustrated, full-color tour of the entirety of Purrman's career, from his earliest works to his late masterpieces. It carefully situates Purrmann in the context of his times and contemporaries, and in doing so reminds us of his signal contribution to twentieth-century art.
