Max Klinger Exhibition: Guest Book

it is good idea!svaka  cast

another beautiful online exhibition.  thank you!

I recently found what I would call a book/folder/binder, it is obviously 
very old and all in German. The only thing on the front cover I can make 
out is "Klinger", then below it is what I assume to be a picture of one of 
his works, then below it some more German writing, (I am very bad a what 
the real letters are, but looks like..) "E.U. Geemanns Runftlermappen" 
then below that "18".  The inside page I did manage to translate, I think, 
to "Max Klinger Six Colored Conventional Gifts of Fine Throw (?)." Under 
that is some more writing and a picture of the artist. I am guessing this 
is some sort of a biography of the artist then in the back are 6 
beautifully colored and in immaculate condition, small prints of what I 
assume to be some of his works.  I translated some of them one is "The 
Source", one is "Evening", one is "Legation" one is "The Blue Grant" and 
one is "Beethoven". The last one, Beethoven I have figured out is a 
picture of his sculpture. This picture isn't a normal picture however, it 
is almost three dimensional, I think it's a painting, there is alot of 
gold on it which seems to have sunk thru the paper on the back side in 
some spots.  Each print is on a separate page and attached at the top of 
each one to a larger blank heavy brown paper.
The prints range in sizes from 10 1/2 by 5 3/4, 10 1/2 by 6, 8 /12 by 7 3/4.
The pages inside the folder are rope tied together and are in pretty good
shape, the folder is pretty worn out, the edges are pretty bad.  The 
prints however, like I said, are in great condition and have never been 
pulled off of the paper they are attached to. I am German, as you can tell 
by my last name, my Grandmother and Grandfather came to the US from 
Germany and I guess that German heritage makes me a little concerned that 
maybe this is worth something and should be in a museum or in a rare books 
collection of some sort... I don't have a clue really. I know nothing 
about art or what these prints I have even are. Unfortunately both 
grandparents have passed away and I can't have them translate this item 
for me or ask them if they know anything of the artist. That's why I'm 
writing you. If you would like for me to email you some pictures I will do 
so, my camera however is pretty crappy so they may not turn out very good! 
If I don't hear back from you I will assume that this item I picked up is 
of no value except for a piece of German history for myself! Thank you for 
your time!

Muchas gracias

Same name too.  No relation.
Nice

All my life I've been interested in Paul. His art was very different,
quite daring, free of conventions. Amazing.

Just i would say hi...it is always nice to meet someone with the
same name. if you by any chance know the origins of the name klinger
please email me.

Very Nice work I like your style..

Nice Artwork

I am descended from Max Klinger and Freidrich Maximilian Klinger
and am interested in obtaining copys of some prints of either or both
artists.

Looking for examples of art work done by Max Klinger.
I am descended from him-documentation in my possession

Where can I see more of Klinger in the US? Also, how can I establish
a paint I own of Kingers? Finally, can someone tell me about books that 
have been written on Klinger? Thanks.

your exibit soon.

Wonderful start, how do I see the rest of the show on the Internet?

As an owner of a Max Klinger oil painting, I call Girl on a CountryRoad,
I was surprised to find that he was such a famous artist. I would appreciate
any information about Klinger or referrences to good books, articles, etc. 
Thanks.  

It's a great page, very interisting, haven't finished all of it yet,
maby someone who reads this can help me with a painting that i have
(THE WIDOWS MITE) by Hugo Meith, I have had it since year 1950, and would
appricate any info anyone has to offer. 
Thanks William L. Pence

Two years after (1998) I come across your Klinger-site.
The exhibition is--unfortunately--no longer accessible . . . or is it?
Greetings, Helmi--

Congratulations you are a true artist

Fantastic! I didn't expect to find soooooo many Klinger's
fans in internet. I visited the exhibition in Ferrara last year
and I fell in love with Klinger's world -his thoughts and
fears about death, his passion for music, his perfect
tecnique... I'm not an expert about art, it just gives me
emotion and beauty... But isn't it made for it?

I was introduced to Max Klinger's work at an exhibition in a
gallery in Japan.
Immediately I fell in love with 'Die Untergang.'
If anyone has more information about Klinger or 'Die Untergang,' 
particularly about resources on the WWW - could they please mail me?

Thanks

Hello, Klinger fans!
		I much enjoyed reading your comments, and envied your chance
to see this extraordinary show.  I have been fascinated by Klinger for many
years, have agitated on his behalf, and was gratified to be able to speak in
front of his Beethoven Monument when it was finally taken out of the Leipzig
Museum basement (where I first photographed it by flashlight in the early
1970s) when it was installed in the small foyer of the New Gewandhaus.
  I used magnificent color images of it--from both sides--for the jacket of
my book, The Changing Image of Beethoven:  A Study in Mythmaking, Rizzoli,
New York, 1987, and if anyone is interested in reading what I wrote about
Klinger inside (his connection with Brahms as well), well, take a look!
  And to the Arnold Boecklin fan--yes, I agree with you; he too is terrific!
Cheers!

Complimenti per la mostra molto interessante e completa. Da non
intenditori dobbiamo per� dire che le opere su tela non sono all'altezza 
delle sculture o delle acqueforti.
Personalmente l'opera pi� apprezzata � stata "Il dormiente".
Saluti.
