The Old Master Paintings Museum
Wallraf-Richartz Museum & Fondation Corboud, Cologne (Koeln), Germany
A digital Zoom visit with your private art historian, our plan B in Covid 19 / Corona times. I will show you my image bank of paintings inside. And give you a high quality tour.
In better times, after re-opening:
Join me for a visit to the Wallraf-Richartz Museum, Cologne (Koeln), Germany. I will be your private professore, travelling in by train from Amsterdam, Holland specially for you. Tour by Drs Kees Kaldenbach, a professional Art History scholar with excellent teaching skills. Specialist in Fine art and Design, Architecture and History. VIP entry. Entry best at from 9 or 10AM.
Please note, this is a high level offer. Practicalities: I live in Amsterdam, Holland and do NOT run a travel agency. I do however provide Fabulous international museum tours. The plan is that you contract me for one or more days as your private ‘Professor’ and offer full transport to that city, plus hotel accommodation in the same place you will stay. We will spend quality time together in mornings and early afternoons.
1. Expensive option: You can hire me and I will fly in to be your own outstanding private “Professore”. At your cost, I will fly in especially for you and I will guide you after spending a hotel night. And then a very memorable museum visit or two.
2. Less expensive option: I know many first-rate art historian colleagues all over Western Europe. Therefore I know just the company/guide to arrange an excellent museum visit for you. I work very closely with these art history women and men and they are brilliant.
In 1824 the comprehensive collection of medieval art owned by Franz Ferdinand Wallraf came to the city of Cologne by inheritance. The collection regularly expanded through donations, especially the Haubrich collection of contemporary art, in 1946 which was moved recently to the Ludwig museum next to the Dom / Cathedral. The last enormous gift was the Corboud collection of impressionist masterworks.
On floor 1, if you like, you will find the Early Germanic art in great numbers.
