  Werner Mantz is regarded as one of the most gifted architectural photographers of the twentieth century. His talent in this field we recognized early in his career and he received numerous commissions from a variety of prominent architects, first in Germany and later in the Netherlands. His work in Cologne especially, from the mid-1920s to the early 1930s, forms a definitive statement of the Neue Sachlichkeit movement in architecture.

  Works by Werner Mantz can be found in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, The Museum of Modern Art in New York, The Art Institute of Chicago, Tate London and many more.
