Book Synopsis
Georg Lührig (1868-1957) was among the artists who dominated Dresden's art scene at the turn of the century, incorporating the trends of Art Nouveau and Symbolism into a mysterious, fascinating visual language of their own. Lührig's oeuvre is characterised by considerable diversity of both form and content. He experimented with different materials and techniques, including charcoal, pencil, watercolour, and lithography. This richly illustrated catalogue documents the work of an artist who is ripe for rediscovery - with small studies on paper, large-format oil paintings, and monumental frescoes created as commissioned works for public buildings; also included are still lifes, landscapes, animal depictions, and portrait works.
First comprehensive catalogue of Dresden-based artist Georg Lührig's work--with newly assessed material from his estate
A key contribution to research on Art Nouveau and Symbolism in Dresden
