The artist’s grandson Beat Steffan and an extensive team of authors have undertaken in recent years to identify, arrange, examine and edit Emil Pirchan’s estate. This endeavour gave rise to a richly coloured volume, in Germanand English-language editions, which makes it possible to re-experience an entire epoch of German-Austrian and Czech cultural history with an extraordinary range of detail and perspective.
