Alte Pinakothek

The most anticipated museum tour in Munich! When I went, it happened to be in time for the Utrecht School of Painting and Caravaggio exhibition. Both Dürer's self-portraits and Rembrandt's paintings are important collections here.

The old painting gallery has two floors, displaying works of art from the 14th to the 18th century. Dürer’s self-portraits seem nothing strange to many people accustomed to self-portraits, but in his time, this was the first time a self-portrait was painted with a full frontal, looking at the camera.

Munich's old painting museum is one of the six major art museums in the world, many of them are Renaissance works, the theme of the works, many of them are paintings of Western religions, and it is related to Jesus, the Virgin mother, and war. Tickets for the museum are 1 euros a week and 7 euros a week. No bags are allowed during the visit. The bags are stored at the left hand side of the entrance.

It is said that it is an old museum, but the building is in modern style, just because the works in the collection are about 14-18th century works. The collection of masterpieces from the Renaissance era in the museum is enough to make it into the ranks of top art museums, such as Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, Botticelli, Lippi and so on. The relatively larger number are the works of Rubens, Rembrandt, and Van Dijk. Especially the huge paintings of Rubens are very shocking. In a separate studio on the ground floor, a self-portrait of Dürer, the most talented and famous painter in German history, is quietly hung on the wall. Dürer is very handsome, so he is probably a bit narcissistic and created the form of "self-portrait". In the picture, Dürer has a clear eyebrow and has a Jesus temperament. Like Leonardo da Vinci, his talent is far more than painting, and this also makes his paintings extremely vivid and vivid. It is a pity that even such a high-level art gallery only exhibited two Dürer's paintings.

The reason why the museum is named the Old Museum is mainly because the artworks on display are very old, mostly in the style of the 14th to 18th centuries. This gallery also seems to be very suitable for visiting. There are very good exquisite paintings and artworks to enjoy.

The Old Paintings Exhibition Hall, also known as the Ancient Paintings Exhibition Hall, is one of the most famous galleries in Munich, Germany, and one of the six most famous galleries in the world. Monet on Manet's boat and lunch in the studio are all impressionist classics.
