This series contains Werner's early belletristic writings, primarily poetry. Many of the English poems, as well as the prose writings, written between 1939 and 1940, describe the experiences of exile, internment in a British labor camp, as well as Werner's voyage and early days in the United States.

This series contains typescripts, proofs, handwritten and typed notes, a small amount of correspondence, clippings, exhibition catalogs, and photographs pertaining to the monographs written by Werner on the artists: Ernst Barlach, Marc Chagall, Edgar Degas, Albrecht Dürer, Raoul Dufy, Paul Gauguin, Chaim Gross, George Inness, Gustav Klimt, Amedeo Modigliani, Edvard Munch, Jules Pascin, Odilon Redon, Michael Schreck, Chaim Soutine, Moses Soyer, Maurice Utrillo and Max Weber. In addition to texts of the monographs, the series also contains numerous typescripts (as well as some published versions) of short articles and reviews of books dealing with these same artists.
