Meister Des Impressionismus/Masters Of Impressionism

Cologne's oldest museum, the Wallraf-Richartz-Museum & Fondation Corboud - also referred to simply as "the Wallraf" - is one of the largest classic galleries in Germany, and it possesses the most important collection of Western art from the Middle Ages up to the early twentieth century in western Germany. Indeed, its collection of Impressionist painting is the largest in all of Germany - not lastly due to the works contained in the Fondation Corboud, which were bequeathed to the Wallraf by the Swiss collector Gerard J. Corboud. For the first time, the unique treasures of Impressionism that belong to the Wallraf's store of paintings have been assembled in an illustrated volume. Prominence has been given to works by Claude Monet, Auguste Renoir, Alfred Sisley, and many more of the great masters.
