Max Beckmann 1884-1950: The Path to Myth (Big Series : Art)

After a phase in which his art dealt mainly with biblical, historical and allegorical subjects, Beckmann painted pictures showing humanity "in extremis", both physical and spiritual. This book analyzes the thematic complexes in Beckmann's visual world and traces the myths of the man and the art.
