Description
Summary:Maria Hirsch has remained a completely unknown figure and the Kunstwissenschaftliche Forschungen where her only published article appeared during her lifetime has also been ignored and misunderstood. Nonetheless, her contribution is short, to the point and more easily understood than most of the other contributions to the two volumes of that periodical to have appeared before its political curtailment.
