Since re-unification in 1990, Berlin, as the new capital of unified Germany, has restored, rebuilt and revamped its museums as no other art center in the world.

Our presentation will focus on Berlin’s great nineteenth century painting collections, the oldest off which is the French and German collection at the Nationalgalerie on Museum Island and the most recent, an astounding private collection comprising 37 Monets and more Impressionist masters at the newly rebuilt Barberini palace in Potsdam.

Manet’s late masterpiece At the Conservatory (1879), Grain stacks and views of the Riviera by Monet (1890), Paris views by Caillebotte, Van Gogh’s Moulin de la Galette (1886), Signac’s view of Saint-Tropez (1892) and masterpieces by two of the greatest Berlin painters of the 19th century, Adolph Menzel and Max Liebermann are a few of the exceptional works we will be covering.
