Catalogue of the exhibition held at the Columbus Museum of Art (Columbus, Ohio), April 23 to October 24, 1999; most of the works were also previously shown in the Banco Bilbao Vizcaya, Madrid, in 1998. Firm binding, clean inside copy. Dust jacket protected in a mylar cover. Richly illustrated with colour plates. *** "This exhibition celebrates and examines for the first time eighteenth-century painting both collected and produced in Dresden. Dresden in the Ages of Splendor and Enlightenment: Eighteenth-Century Paintings from the Old Masters Picture Gallery presents an opportunity to see a body of work from the legendary Gemaldegalerie Alte Meister that has never before been exhibited in the United States. The landscapes, cityscapes, portraits, and religious and allegorical paintings reflect the interplay between collecting and creating art in one of the great artistic centers of eighteenth-century Europe, one comparable in brilliance with other German-speaking power centers of the period such as Vienna, Munich, or Berlin." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Painting in Dresden in the Eighteenth Century, by Harald Marx; Catalogue I: Dresden Painters from the Eighteenth Century, by Harald Marx and Gregor J.M.
