Description


Originally the Elberfeld city gallery the museum was promoted to that of the city museum with the founding of Wuppertal, and has subsequently been named after the banking family that input a lot of money into the institution. The gallery has a large collection of works on display, in particular the museum was the first in the world to purchase a work by Picasso and they've added more in the subsequent years, along with works by his contemporary Max Beckmann. Both were considered degenerate by the Nazis who seized a lot of the museums works and they now proudly use that as a badge of honour.
