The Alte Pinakothek Munich's Old Picture Gallery — contains one of the world's finest collections of European painting. In the sixteenth century Bavaria's rulers began acquiring works of art for their personal enjoyment, and for three centuries the ever-expanding royal collections were scattered among several palaces and galleries. Not until 1836 was this priceless artistic heritage opened to the public. Through this book you can tour the Pinakothek's galleries and view what was once the private domain of a privileged few.
