Galerie neue Meister
• The new exhibition of the Galerie
Neue Meister in the Albertinum
was the main focus of the painting restoration
department’s work from 2009.
Around 500 paintings and frames had to
be inspected and their condition assessed
before being brought from their temporary
storerooms. In many cases conservational
work was required. In addition, the
opening of the new exhibition was a welcome
opportunity to enable museum visitors
to gain a greater sense of the unity
between pictures and their frames in 19th
and 20th century art. The focus was on
research and on the expert restoration of
historic picture frames. Thus, it was possible
to return several paintings to their
original frames, from which they had
been separated in past decades. Some of
these had been badly damaged in the
flood and so were in need of thorough­going
restoration. The works reunited with
their frames in this way included: Hans
Unger “The Muse”, Franz von Lehnbach
“Portrait of Otto Fürst von Bismarck”,
Anselm Feuerbach “Landscape with
Goats”, Ferdinand von Rayski “Portrait of
the Cathedral Canon Baron Zobel von
