A landmark survey of one of Europe's most celebrated collections, The Berlin Museum: Paintings in the Picture Gallery, Dahlem-West Berlin presents a comprehensive catalogue of the masterworks housed in the Gemäldegalerie at Dahlem during West Berlin's postwar era. Art historian Rüdiger Klessmann guides readers through centuries of European painting, from early Netherlandish and German masters to the Italian Renaissance and the Dutch Golden Age, with authoritative commentary on each work. The volume details 302 illustrations — 90 in full colour — providing an invaluable visual record of paintings by Rembrandt, Bruegel, Caravaggio, and Botticelli, among many others. Written with scholarly precision yet accessible to the general art enthusiast, this collection documents a pivotal chapter in the history of Berlin's cultural institutions, preserved at a time when the city's great collections were divided between East and West.
