Herbert Knötel adroitly brings soldiers of every age and every nationality to life with his detailed sketches and masterful watercolors. "Herbert Knötel's German Armies" includes 137 never-before-published sketches and watercolors of German military figures from the 18th-20th centuries. This unique art, from the Anne S.K. Brown Military Collection at Brown University and the private collection of Alfred and Roland Umhey, offers vivid insight into one of the 20th century's most accomplished military artists. A superb biographical essay from Knötel's only child provides personal context for the artist's life and brilliant work.
