Customer Review:
This book deserves 7 stars. The plates are superlative, and the coloration is excellent. Coloration is a problem that plagues most books about Hofmann (among others).

The narrative is interesting, but the main purpose for this book, at least for me, is a collection of pictures of her work. This book has the most complete collection of her work that I've found.
