Summary: Despite the vast number of Americans who claim German ancestry, there is neither a major collection of 19th-Century German painting in the U. S. Nor have there been any exhibitions focusing on this subject. This volume aims to redress that balance. Although many will not be familiar with the great artists included in this volume, Caspar David Friedrich, Louis Corinth and Max Klinger are well-known names whose works form the core of the permanent collection of the Museum of Fine Arts in Leipzig, Germany.
