These journals provide great insight into the mind and art of one of the great 20th century artists. Though born in Poland, he is best known for his paintings of Welsh miners, for it was workers that inspired him, and he painted them with great simplicity, almost as monuments to work, and often with the sun and sky behind them so that they looked like latter-day saints. The journals reveal his artistic heritage, who inspired him, what he was in painters, what he thought of their technique. This is a fascinating book for anyone interested in art.

"The Journals begin in 1948 in Ystradgynlais, the Welsh mining village that Josef Herman loved, and which he made his home for more than a decade, finding there what he needed to express himself as a painter. He arrived in the Swansea Valley at the end of a journey which began in Warsaw where he was born in 1911. His passion for art and an awareness of the prevailing anti-Semitism took him to Brussels where he studied his beloved Flemish masters. But, with the Nazi invasion he escaped to France, ending up finally in an internment camp in Scotland. In these Journals we read how he discovered the fate of his family and of his subsequent and enduring anguish."--Jacket. Artikel-Nr. 3ewgor006
