Opis

Paintings in German Museums systematically documents the entire holdings of a total of 557 German museums between Berchtesgaden and Seebüll. Since the last edition an additional 13,100 paintings, 2,500 artists and 75 museums have been added. New information can be found on 2,600 pictures and no less than 800 artists. The addresses of the museum have been completely up-dated. Whether you are searching for portraits of composers or want to know in which German museum pictures by the Würzburger Barock painter Georg Anton Urlaub can be found, whether you specialize in 17th century still life pictures or need an overview of the holdings of the Marburger Universitätsmuseums für Bildende Kunst: With the help of Paintings in German Museums you can find paintings from all epochs, genres and styles, including those which lead a secluded existence in the depositories of German museums. Paintings in German Museums provides a comprehensive and up-to-date catalogue of more than 143,137 paintings from more than 22,589 artists. This standard work has been considerably enlarged for the third edition. The entries for numerous pictures previously incompletely covered have now been supplemented with information regarding date of origin, format and materials. Biographical details have been updated and extended, whilst new information has also been applied in the category "attributed to". An astonishing number of museums have changed their names in recent years. As an aid to locating museums and avoiding confusion, the previous names are provided after the current ones. The paintings can be found in any one of three ways. In Artists and Their Works (volumes 1-3) the artists are arranged alphabetically together with their biographical details, whilst the pictures are listed according to their location. The entries include the title of the painting, its year of origin, material, format and special references such as "copy", "studio piece", "attributed to" etc. Where several names are in use, especially for painters of earlier epochs, references have been made to the more common forms. The same applies to pseudonyms and double names of painters. The Iconographic Directory in the volumes 4 and 5 divides the work into 300 groups of motives and is especially useful for research. Searches are further assisted by a classified index of over 900 terms, including subjects as obscure as "Alchemist Workshops" or "Atomic Physicians". Museums and Their Paintings fills two volumes where all paintings included in the main part can be found, arranged according to the appropriate museums and galleries. The emphases' of collections and the collecting policies of individual museums thus become apparent. Paintings in German Museums is a valuable source of information for universities, picture archives, museums and art libraries and also for the interested collector and art lover.
