Tischbein und die Kunst des ‚Goldenen Zeitalters': Rezeptionsgeschichte(n) um 1800
The art of the 'Golden Age' of the Netherlands is often in the focus of art history, but rarely in Germany around 1800. This study remedies this deficit using the example of the 'Goethe-Tischbein's' trip to the Netherlands and thereby gains new insights into aspects such as pictorial knowledge, dissemination and reception of 17th-century Dutch art. Relationships and exchange between artists and experts, agents and collectors are examined as well as the innovative role of Johann Heinrich Wilhelm Tischbein: As a reliable eyewitness and skilled networker, he is way ahead of his time.
