Watercolours by Hans J. Wegner
Watercolours by Hans J. Wegner invites readers to explore a different facet of Hans Wegner's artistry, rediscovering his iconic furniture through his tactile and alluring watercolours.
The Danish furniture designer Hans J. Wegner (1914-2007) is celebrated globally for his sophisticated chairs, yet few are acquainted with his masterly watercolours. Throughout his career, his workshop drawings were often completed as watercolours, seamlessly blending artistry with his designs.
Wegner's artisanal background connected him to tradition, whilst his artistic temperament drove him to explore new and boundary-breaking paths in his quest for the perfect chair. This book presents his watercolours in thematic chapters, exploring the artistic dimension of selected chairs and celebrating his status as one of the 20th century's greatest furniture designers.
