As he wandered around Europe, Dien quickly adapted to the Continental way of life, and was skillful in portraying nuances and brilliance through his stone work and his elaborate schemes. His critical and cynical perceptions of political movements, social charters, and government policies in pre-World War II Europe gave the Western middle artist ample material for his growing body of work.
