New Haven and London: Yale Univ Press/Museum Weisbaden, 2006. Book. Illus. by Hesse, Eva. New. Cloth. First Edition. Folio. New Haven and London: Yale University Press and Museum Weisbaden, 2006. First edition. Two volumes, complete. Folio. Grey silk bindings in matching slipcases. 724 pp. total. Illustrated throughout in color. The work of Eva Hesse (1936-1970) has been the focus of growing attention over the past few decades.
