Masterpieces of 19th Century German Painting from the Museum of Fine Arts, Leipzig (Art & Design)

Despite the vast number of Americans who claim German ancestry, there is neither a single major collection of 19th century German painting in the US nor have their been any exhibitions focusing on this subject in such detail. This volume redresses the balance. Although many will not be familiar with the great artists included in the volume, Caspar David Friedrich, Lovis Corinth, and Max Klinger are well-known names whose work forms the core of the permenant collection of the Museum of Fine Arts in Leipzig, Germany. The 84 paintings reproduced in this sumptuously illustrated volume provide a rare opportunity to learn about these masters and their influence, especially between 1840 and 1880 when Germany had a profound impact on artistic life in America. - Publisher.
