Description

Ein gutes und sauberes Exemplar. - In 1944 Rolf E. Stenersen wrote a biography of the world-renowned painter Edvard Munch, which became an instant classic. This well-written book has now at last been published in a new, richly illustrated edition. The presentation in Edvard Munch - Close-up of a Genius is built upon the author's close observations during his acquaintanceship with the artist over many years. In his animated descriptions of encounters with Munch, Stenersen displays his well-developed sense of absurd situations and gallows humor. The author describes episodes from his longstanding relationship with the artist genius in direct speech, so that we can hear Munch describe his pictures, his art and other day-to-day problems at Ekely in his own words. About the painter, Stenersen writes, "To get close to Edvard Munch it is necessary to follow him from painting to painting." ISBN 9788270461028
