By Nicolas Powell and Adolf Opel. Surveys the whole range of Vienna's artistic achievement during the years between 1898 and 1928.

The Secessionist movement is also examined--one of the first collective rebuttals of establishment art in Europe and subsequent developments in all the arts. Profusely illustrated in color & b/w.
