The holdings of the Stadel Museum, now entering its third century, include magnificent works dating from the early 14th century to the present. This exquisitely produced volume focuses on the collection's highlights, offering readers an in-depth insight into the Stadel's treasures as well as a survey of the development of European art. Included here are Renaissance masterpieces by Botticelli and Bellini; paintings by Vermeer, Monet and Richter; works by Modernists and post-Modernists; sculpture by Calder; photography by Tillmans and much more.
