General Info
Hans Bechtler credited his brother Walter for leading the way to the family’s interest in modern art. In 1950 the brothers began to visit the Kunsthaus museum in Zurich. They frequented local galleries, purchased art and made friends with artists. - See more at: http://www.bechtler.org/About/History#sthash.AGurUH91.dpuf
