THE LOBKOWICZ COLLECTIONS
As one of the oldest, largest and most intact private collections in the Czech Republic, the significance of the Lobkowicz Collections lies in its comprehensive nature, reflecting the cultural, social, political and economic life of Central Europe over six centuries. With the passage of the restitution laws in the early 1990s, it became possible for the Lobkowicz family to reassemble most of their extensive collections, featuring among its treasures world-famous paintings by Brueghel, Canaletto, Bellotto, Cranach, Rubens, Veronese and many others, and an unparalleled collection of musical instruments and autograph manuscripts by many of the greatest composers of the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, including Beethoven and Mozart. This beautifully illustrated guide celebrates the reunification of the Lobkowicz Collections, now on view at the Lobkowicz Palace in the Prague Castle complex and at Nelahozeves Castle outside Prague, after more than 50 years. Featuring sections on paintings, rare books, music, medieval and renaissance works of art, ceramics and exceptional arms and armor, and including a comprehensive study of the history of the Lobkowicz family, this is the first book to present the full scope of the collections to the public.
