Abstract

When Ludwig Meidner (1884-1966), the German-Jewish Expressionist painter, printmaker and writer, returned to Germany in 1953, never adjusted during the fourteen years of exile and there is a sense, that he wanted to eradicate all that reminded him of London – except for Blake. This essay, which engages with the artistic visions of Else and Ludwig Meidner, focuses on their shared interest in Blake as mediated by fellow émigré and Czech-born art historian, art critic and author Joseph Paul (1905-1995).
