The Scharf-Gerstenberg Collection Berlin
This small book is intended as an affordable (for an art book) souvenir of a visit to the museum housing the Scharf-Gerstenberg Collection. It reproduces "highlights" of the Collection with a short commentary on each piece. Said Collection was a private collection of mainly Surrealist and related works, now held by a Foundation dedicated to making the art accessible to the public.
The two most notable results of my visit were discovery of Piranesi and for the firsst time appreciating works by Paul Klee. This book has two reproductions by the former and several by the latter. There's a lot of other interesting work, too, though.
