  • TLF, 10th April 1988: " ... when Gropius was about to leave the directorship of the Bauhaus in 1928 ... a commemorative album was collected ...; on this occasion, all the workshops prepared a page for inclusion in the album. I was asked to take group photographs of the Wandmalerei, the Druckerei and the Weberei; I also took several pictures of a group of „alte Bauhäusler“ (who had begun life at the school in Weimar and had come along to Dessau) at their request: This group consisted of Herbert Bayer, Marcel Breuer [sic], Josef Albers, Heinrich Koch, Andor Weininger, Clemens Röseler and Alexander Schawinsky. – Gropius leaving the Bauhaus was very vividly felt. ...
