The most important exhibits, such as the works of Wenzel Jamnitzer, the “Filigree Ivory Frigate” of Jacob Zeller, and Permoser’s and Dinglinger’s masterworks, are introduced at length. At the same time the guide is a scholarly handbook in which the latest research on one of the most famous treasury museums in the world is presented in a concise and readily accessible style.
