{"product_id":"paula-modersohn-becker-1","title":"Paula Modersohn-becker","description":"When Paula Modersohn-Becker’s artist friends examined her extensive estate a few weeks after her death in 1907, they were overwhelmed. Only gradually did they realize that in the painter, dead at thirty-one, they had had an outstanding artist in their midst. Today Modersohn-Becker is regarded as one of the pioneers of Expressionism.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Sculptor Bernhard Hoetger was one of the few people who recognized Modersohn-Becker’s talent from an early stage. In 1920, he published a book collecting his memories of her, and they are reproduced as facsimile here. In addition to Hoetger’s writings, the book offers an essay tracing Modersohn-Becker’s life and work from a present-day perspective, together with a traditional biographical sketch and reproductions of forty of her most important works.","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57307159167358,"sku":"NW9783777434896","price":10.79,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1379\/1261\/files\/9783777434896.jpg?v=1778695881","url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/products\/paula-modersohn-becker-1","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
