B3 club chair, the Wassili chair by Marcel Breuer, named after Bauhaus professor Wassili Kandinsky. Both Breuer and Kandinsky were Bauhaus teachers. The chair was a product of functionalist thinking about design, inspired by Breuer’s bicycle. The photograph was shot by Bauhaus student Erich Consemüller and shows a woman, who is either Bauhaus weaving graduate Lis Beyer or Ise Gropius, wife of Director Walter Gropius. She is wearing a skirt designed by Beyer and a theatre mask by Bauhaus teacher Oscar Schlemmer.
