Overview

Excerpt from Schack Gallery in Munich: In the Possession of His Majesty the German Emperor King of Prussia Lenbach, this floor contains a second sky-lighted room with copies from paintings of the old masters as well as rooms and cabinets with the pictures of Bocklin, Spitzweg, Feuerbach etc. On the second floor are additional three sky-lighted rooms in which the rest of the copies from paintings by old masters are hung. The building of this new edifice affords the possibility of now being able to view the ocllective pictures of the Schack Gallery in a thoroughly good light. These treasures, which even at the time of their very deficient hang ing afforded pleasure and relaxation to wide circles in Germany, have now as it were, been of anew presented to Munich artists and art connoisseurs in the whole of Germany, by the Emperor. And the Schack Gallery, in its present form and shape, carries out in the fullest sense of the words the intentions of the Emperor, of helping to increase the fame of the City of Munich and as a memorial to great artists.
