Book Description
The Alte and Neue Pinakothek in Munich rank among the great galleries of the world. Their comprehensive collections trace in detail the development of art from the Middle Ages through the periods of the Renaissance, Baroque, Romanticism, Realism and Impressionism up to the birth of Modernism.The Neoclassical design of the Alte Pinakothek by Leo von Klenze (1836) had a seminal influence on museum architecture in Europe and provides the setting for the Old Masters. After the second museum building (completed in 1853) was destroyed during the Second World War, the architect Alexander von Branca created today’s Neue Pinakothek (1981). Its formal expression, in the idiom of a medieval fortress, and impressive exhibition galleries have made it a classic of Postmodernism. In this book, the author offers a refreshingly personal perspective on an eclectic selection of memorable works from across the collections.

Author: Reinhold Baumstark

Languages : en
Pages : 128
Book Description
Munich's Alte Pinakothek houses a collection of paintings from the 14th to the 18th century. Founded in the 16th century by Duke Wilhelm IV of Bavaria, the collection is now housed in a neoclassical building, built under the auspices of King Ludwig I. Maximilian I acquired eleven of Durer's works, so the gallery boasts such paintings as the Four Apostles and the Paumgarten Altar. To Elector Max Emanuel we owe the beginning of the Rubens collection, which is now the largest in the world. The Italian collection includes Raphael, Botticelli, and Titian. French painting is represented by Chardin, Fragonard, and many others, while the Spanish section is crowned by El Greco's The Disrobing of Christ. Each section is prefaced by an introductory text, which sets the paintings in their historical context, and detailed captions also accompany each painting.
