Papers, 1917-1956, 1983.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/79261041

Schardt's Nachlass documents part of the Nazis' Kulturkampf against Expressionist art in the 1930s. Included are ca. 30 photographs of galleries he had hung in the Kronprinzen-Palais and the Moritzburg Museum, and ca. 100 photographs of works by Expressionist artists such as Willi Baumeister, Paul Klee, and Wilhelm Lembruck. Some of these photographs, like that of Klee's Wintergarten, may be unique images of a now lost or destroyed work.
