Heinrich im Wald

This little book embarks on an adventure. Fascinated by the creative power of a great naive artist who lived from 1844 to 1910, the author Wolfgang von Polentz has set out on a journey through the landscapes of his imagination. He describes them as follows: "What the images of Henri Rousseau have told me, three human generations after they entered the world." Small changes, cleverly introduced by the painter Marta Hofmann, challenge the childlike spirit of discovery, which is to be rewarded with a book gift from the Amalienpresse.
