Circling the Square

"Published to accompany a ground-breaking exhibition at the Hermitage Rooms, Somerset House, Circling the Square offers a rare look at the work of these and many other artists. Some 300 pieces of porcelain from 1918 to the mid-1930s are shown in full colour, while the book also includes 70 drawings which offer a fascinating insight into the artists' working methods. Many of these drawings are previously unpublished, and include extremely rare examples of Wassily Kandinsky's designs for porcelain. Almost all the works come from the historic collection of the Porcelain Factory Museum, which is located within the Lomonosov Porcelain Factory, and which has only recently opened as a new department of the State Hermitage Museum."--BOOK JACKET.
