| Object history | From "Blumenfeld Color". Portfolio of ten prints from transparencies of the 1940s and 1950s [Ph.229 to 238-1985]. Each stamped in ink on the back 'authorised by the estate (c) Erwin Blumenfeld' and the stamps initialled in pencil by the publisher 'fg'. Each numbered in pencil on the back '9/50'. Blumenfeld had close connections with the Berlin Dadadists, and he and his friend Paul Citroen were names as the co-leaders of the Amsterdam branch of Dada (where Blumenfled moved in 1918) by Richard Huelsenbeck. See Martin Harrison, introduction to 'Shots of Style', V&A Musuem, London, 1985. |
