Photographs of Bauhaus faculty and students, ca. 1928-ca. 1934.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/83780940

Most of the photographs are beach scenes taken of faculty and students during group vacations in the south of France (1928) and Italy (Ascona, ca. 1929). Some scenes are of student life at the Bauhaus. A few scenes (the only early photographs printed later or copied) are of theatrical productions (stamped "Herbert Bayer"). Others depict Walter Gropius at Lincoln, Massachusetts (1957). The best represented individual is Marcel Breuer (including a student portrait and a portrait taken in Greece in 1934). Gropius is also well represented. Other individuals (mostly part of group scenes) include Ise Gropius, Herbert Bayer, Alexander (Xanti) Schawinsky, Florence Henry, Laszlo Moholy-Nagy, Max Bayer, Josef Albers, and Josef (Sepp) Maltan.
