| book description |

An authoritative new two-volume publication cataloguing the German paintings before 1800 in the collection of the National Gallery, London   This fully illustrated catalogue presents the most up-to-date research on the 75 paintings in the National Gallery created in the German-speaking lands before 1800. Among them are important groups of works by artists such as Hans Holbein the Younger—including his famous double portrait The Ambassadors of 1533—Lucas Cranach the Elder, Albrecht Dürer, and Adam Elsheimer.   This is the first catalogue of German paintings since 1959 and includes authoritative entries on a number of important new acquisitions. Each entry discusses in detail the subject matter, authorship, provenance and art historical significance of the work. The German Paintings before 1800 also includes two essays, the first discussing the history of the paintings’ acquisition by the National Gallery and the taste for German painting in Britain, and the second addressing the ways in which these German artists produced their work.   Published by National Gallery Company/Distributed by Yale University Press
