Cornelia Gurlitt

Begegnung. Eine Hommage zum 130sten Geburtstag. / An encounter. A homage for her 130th birthday.

by Hubert Portz

Description

The artist Cornelia Gurlitt (1890-1919) served as a nurse in Vilnius from 1915 to 1918. As a witness close to the needs and the suffering of the sick, the Jews, and particularly the women and children, she allows us to feel what they and others endured.

Cornelia was the sister of the “notorious” art collector Hildebrand Gurlitt. This publication showcases all her work from Cornelius Gurlitt’s estate, in the hands of the Kunstmuseum Bern since 2014, for the first time.
