Otto Dix Leben und Werk.

£975 · Offered by Shapero Rare Books

A presentation copy, inscribed by Dix to the Dutch artist Paul Citroen on the half tittle 'Herrn Citroen zur freundlichen Erinnerung April 1964 Otto Dix'. Tipped in a TLS from one Ridderbos to Citroen, in Dutch, and a small collection of ephemera, including two small Dix exhibition catalogues. Citroen ran a private art school in Amsterdam to which he invited his friends as visiting teachers, which for a while before the war acted as a haven for many persecuted German artists. There exists a fine pencil portrait of Dix by Citroen, drawn in 1964, now in the Museum de Fundatie, NL. First edition, inscribed by the artist; 4to; numerous illustrations, a few in colour; publisher's grey cloth, lettered in red and black, minor wear, upper hinge (inside) cracked but holding, otherwise fine.
