The Bauhaus

Vintage hardback coffee table book featuring works from The Bauhaus school of art and design. By Doreen Ehrilch, published in 1991. First edition, 176 pages. 

"The Bauhaus, founded as a German school of design in 1919, was closed down by Hitler in 1933: a mere fourteen years of existence, and yet the Bauhaus represents one of the most powerful and enduring currents in the twentieth-century design. The buildings in which we live and work, many of the everyday objects that we use, the layout and typography of the books and magazines we read, all have their origins in the Bauhaus workshops at Weimar and Dessau seventy years ago."
