Zum Sammeln verführen

Viac o knihe

Sixteen selected artworks from classical antiquity to classical modernism are introduced here through brief but stimulating stories in which the Hamburg Kunsthalle and the Museum für Kunst und Gewerbe commemorate their silent benefactor who, 100 years ago, bequeathed the funds for the spectacular purchases. His name was Julius Heinrich Wilhelm Campe (1846-1909), and his bequest marked the foundation of the Campe'sche Historische Kunststiftung.
