In FIGURE AND LANDSCAPE, the Hamburger Kunsthalle will be exhibiting works from two private Hamburg collections of nineteenth-century art that complement each other in ideal fashion. The works are being provided on loan this one time only for viewing by the general public in the Harzen Cabinet. Otherwise hidden away in private collections, these exquisite artworks reveal the collectors’ personal predilections, comprising impressive landscape and figure paintings made by Italian, French, German and a few English artists using a wide range of techniques. On view will be around 100 drawings, watercolours, pastels and smaller paintings – including several enchanting oil studies – dating from the late eighteenth to the early twentieth century.
