Description: In The creation of an earthly paradise Léon Hanssen presents the life and work of Piet Mondrian in the period 1919-1933.

In addition to the biography of Mondrian, the book presents a striking picture of a turbulent period: the years between the end of the First World War and the seizure of power by Adolf Hitler in January 1933.
