About This Item
Warsaw: Auriga, 1985 Quarto, cloth, 96pp. A catalogue of paintings and drawings, totalling 108 entries, all illustrated, of works by Witkiewicz from 1908 to 1913 that were lost but recorded in his own photographs, with notations often detailing elements around the works, including biographical comments and opinions. Witkacy took hundreds of photos of his work, most of which were lost in the bombing of Warsaw. These are from a private collection that were spared from destruction and provide a very important document for assessing the earlier work of this misunderstood, multitalented genius. Text in English and Polish. Very good in dust wrapper.
