Synopsis:
This book accompanies an international exhibition of works from the Oskar Reinhart Foundation in Winterthur, Switzerland, one of the world's finest collections of German, Austrian, and Swiss art. This book surveys a rich pictorial tradition, ranging from Romantic and Biedermeier works to the art of Realist and Symbolist painters of the late 19th century. Paintings by such major artists as Friedrich, Runge, Menzel, Býcklin, Liebermann, and Hodler are discussed along with works by less familiar figures.
