Description
The catalogue sheds light on the collectors' close contact with their artist friends including Pierre Bonnard, Ferdinand Hodler, Henri Matisse and Felix Vallotton. It provides an insight into unknown aspects of the artists' lives, their creative work and the motivation and passions of the collectors themselves. Today the collection is largely in the possession of the collectors' heirs or has been donated to the art museums of Bern and Winterthur.
