“Three Colours Black” at the Neue Pinakothek will be open from October 5. The show will focus on paintings from second half of the 19th century, including 15 paintings from the Pinakothek’s own collections. The theme is the use of the color black in paintings and the various connotations it has carried through changing times. Paintings by 19th-century artists such as Johann Heinrich Füssli, Édouard Manet, and Franz Xaver are placed alongside masterpieces by Vouet, Diego Velázquez, and Bartolomé Estéban Murillo, taken from the currently closed Alte Pinakothek.Click on the slideshow for a sneak peek of the exhibition.
