"European Masters: Städel Museum, 19th–20th Century brings together a remarkable collection of masterpieces from the Städel Museum in Frankfurt, one of the finest collections in Europe. The NGV is truly privileged to host this exhibition, as the Städel have committed only the highlights of its renowned collection of 19th and 20th century European art. Alongside masterpieces by German artists are works by the greatest French, Belgian, Dutch and Swiss masters of the time. Included are iconic Neo-Classical, Realist, Impressionist and Symbolist works, through to breathtaking German Expressionist paintings and sculpture, rarely seen in Australia."
I dont really go and admire paintings that much but the colours and brush strokes you could see so clearly you could tell if they were hard or soft strokes. i especially like the artwork (i forgot the title) where there are two ladies and a gentlemen at a tea party.
my eyes always wonder back to the lady in white.
