eAuction #51 - Literature sale III, Lot 38. Estimate: CHF 20.00

Lange, Kurt. Götter Griechenlands. Meisterwerke Antiker Münzkunst. Berlin 1941. Small 4to (21.5x28.5cm), hard bound with linen spine and corners, spine title glued on; 127 pages including 64 glossy paper plates. Some foxing to last few pages. Good.

CS 3478, Daehn 991.

A note from BCD: The mere thought that this book was printed during the first year of WWII makes the reader look at it under a very different light. The masterful enlargements of Berlin’s most stunning Greek coins that would become almost inaccessible for the next half century speak to the viewer in a way that transcends traditional numismatics in the sense that we know and understand it.
