Kd. 6: 1940–1991: II osa (Tallinn: Eesti Kunstiakadeemia, 2016).The ambitious six-volume project of the history of Estonian art was launched in 1999, and the two-part volume examined here is the largest addition to the series.The richly illustrated series is published in Estonian; however, quite substantial English summaries (28 pages in part I, 31 pages in part II) allow also foreign readers to grasp at least a broad outline of the facts, structure and methodology
