Literature tip: Museum guide
The richly illustrated museum guide is dedicated to an important period in the intellectual life of the city of Dresden, which is thematised in the Kügelgenhaus. The authors Günter Klieme and Hans-Joachim Neidhardt, recognised experts on the subject and initiators of the museum's foundation, paint a vivid picture of Romanticism, describing the early and specific characteristics of this epoch in Dresden. Artists and social circles of Dresden's early Romanticism are analysed in detail. The »Gottessegen« house on Dresden's Hauptstraße, where the painter Wilhelm von Kügelgen lived and where the Museum of Dresden Romanticism has been housed since 1981, is specially honoured.
