黑料不打烊

In November 1956, shortly before his unexpected death, the Zurich-based industrialist Emil B眉hrle recalled how his passion for collecting had arisen: 鈥�Monet鈥檚 magic would just not lose its hold on me, and I wanted to have 颁茅锄补苍苍别, Degas, Manet and Renoir around me all the time, on my walls.鈥� Within a few years he had amassed an astonishing number of outstanding works of art from all major periods, from the Gothic to the Cubism. Impressionism remained his greatest love, however, and here his interests coincide with those of the Wallraf-Richartz-Museum. Both were at times competing for the finest paintings on the art market in the first half of the 1950s, and today, sixty years after B眉hrle鈥檚 death, some 64 master颅works from the two collections are entering into a unique dialogue at the Museum. Along with items by the artists named above the exhibition features works by D眉rer, Cuyp, Canaletto, Delacroix, Courbet, Sisley, Pissarro, Gauguin, van Gogh, Picasso, Braque and others. The exhibition will be shown only in Cologne.
