It contains detailed information for all 304 items, not only in terms of provenance, literature and attribution but also concerning the subject-matter. The catalogue breaks down into 78 paintings and 31 drawings which are accepted as authentic, 21 paintings and 9 drawings for which the attribution is problematic, and 126 works which are mentioned in historic literature but remain untraced. In addition, 30 paintings and 9 drawings which can no longer be attributed to Knupfer are included. The latter are not just listed but are discussed and in a number of cases new attributions are suggested. The catalogue is complemented by a discussion of the chronology of Knupfer's oeuvre, a list of works which are signed and dated, and a concordance with Kuznetzov's numbers from his articles on Knupfer of 1964 and 1974.
