About this book
The correspondence of Hans Purrmann (1880–1966) and Mathilde Vollmoeller-Purrmann (1876–1943), an important painter couple of classical modernism, provides fascinating insights into the art world of the first half of the twentieth century. Following the volume Sehnsucht nach dem Anderen (Longing for the Other) about the years in Paris at the Académie Matisse, which was published in 2019, the second volume, Stürmische Zeiten (Stormy Times), continues the story of the artists’ marriage in the years from 1915 to 1943. While in Berlin, Langenargen, Rome, and Florence, Hans Purrmann and Mathilde Vollmoeller-Purrmann were also firmly anchored in the artistic avant-garde of Europe at this time, with all its historical, artistic, and personal upheavals.
