Nowhere in Switzerland has the art of French modernism been cultivated with as much consistency as in Winterthur. An example of this change at the turn of the century is the collection of Winterthur textile manufacturer Richard Bühler. During the economic crisis of the 1930s, this unique collection was dispersed. This rich publication now focuses on Bühler's fascinating collection. It allows one to experience major works again, offering not only beautiful spirituality but also genuine sensual pleasures.
