• Resumen

  • Artworks by mentally ill people served as important, but hitherto largely overlooked, sources of inspiration for the painter Richard Lindner. Preparatory drawings confirm, for example, that Lindner was directly influenced by previously overlooked pencil drawings produced by schizophrenic patient László Istók in the 1920s. The latter were reproduced in Irene Jakab's 1956 study Zeichnungen und Gemälde der Geisteskranken—Ihre psychiatrische und künstlerische Analyse.
