Wendingen, a lot of three Dutch issues (1921–1927) on architecture and art in Art Deco and Modern styles, edited by Hendrik Wijdeveld, each roughly 33 x 33 cm with mixed condition.
Description from the seller
Three copies of the rare magazine Wendingen, a very leading monthly for building and ornament. Wendingen is a Dutch architecture and art magazine that was published from 1918 to 1933, initially by the Amsterdam publisher De Hooge Brug (Henri Wiessing) and from 1924 by the publisher C.A. Mees in Santpoort (Mea Verwey and Conno Mees).
The editor-in-chief was the architect Hendrik Wijdeveld, who played an important role regarding content, design, and typography. Many architects and artists contributed to the journal.
1. Wendingen issue 7/8 1921: about Marionettes. Cover design by Lion Cachet. Some folds and missing pieces from the cover. Very unique is an ex-libris by the manufacturer E.J. Duintjer (1873-1956). This manufacturer could, as he said, “not live on potato starch alone” and built an impressive art collection.
2. Wendingen issue 5 from 1927, about art and architecture in Sweden. With some pencil marks and discoloration on the cover.
3. Wendingen issue 3 from 1921, about Petrucci’s East Asian collection. Concerns the (very) rare English edition without advertisements, the print run at the time was 50, so only a few copies remain worldwide.
