Kirchner-Taschen book

Ernst Ludwig Kirchner was a pioneer of German Expressionism, a prolific painter and printmaker, and a co-founder of the Die Brücke movement. Through vivid landscapes, raw nudes, and dynamic city scenes, this introductory book explores his radical painting in Germany before World War I and his leading influence on 20th-century art.
