*A Times and New Statesman Book of the Year* *BBC Radio 4 Book of the Week* Illustrated with over 130 colour photographs and drawings 'A masterpiece.' Edmund de Waal 'Commanding, intelligent, gripping.' The Times *** From 1910 to 1930 Gropius was at the very centre of European modern art and design, as the founder of the German art school, the Bauhaus.
