This editorial review presents the book "Vasily Kandinsky: Around the Circle" as a valuable addition to an art library due to its concise yet comprehensive documentation of the artist's life and work through a large number of color images of paintings. The review notes that this book is not a coffee table book and is more suitable for art collectors with limited space. The reviewer also briefly mentions Kandinsky's cruel behavior towards Gabriele Munter, his student and romantic companion, which had affected her career as an artist. However, this did not prevent the reviewer from acknowledging the artistic value of Kandinsky's works displayed in the book. Overall, the review describes the book as a worthwhile read for art enthusiasts interested in the early holdings of the Guggenheim Museum, Kandinsky's art, life, and thought. The product was delivered as promised and described, and the reviewer appreciated seeing the pictures in the book after seeing some of them at the Guggenheim Museum in New York.
