[Edmund de Waal]
A signed catalogue for an exhibition of curiosities and treasures curated by Edmund de Waal at the Kunsthistoriches Musem in Vienna. De Waal spent three years in the museum's collection selecting paintings and objects. His inspiration was a drawing of a nightmare by Durer and this led to an exploration of themes of anxiety, the dark and the unknown. This copy is signed by de Waal.
