Hendrik Werkman produced prints as an act of resistance against the German occupier during World War II. The best known of these are the Chassidic legends.
Chassidische legenden appeared in two parts. Werkman himself called these 'suites', because they are loose prints with a few text sheets in a folder. The first folder appeared in 1942, the second in January 1944. This happened in small editions: Werkman printed only 20 copies of suite 1, for example.
2 text sections and 2x 10 plates in 2 folders.
Approx. 33x51cm.
This concerns the complete set.
