The German Baroque Gallery is one of the centrepieces of Augsburg's Schaezlerpalais (Schaezlerpalais). In the rooms of the enfilade on the first floor of the building, it presents primarily paintings from Augsburg and southern Germany from the 16th to 18th centuries. Hidden from the eyes of visitors, however, are numerous other treasures in the depots of the art collections and museums that are not part of the permanent exhibition. The exhibition focuses on some of these objects and presents a selection of Baroque and Rococo paintings from Augsburg, southern Germany and Italy, among other places, which illustrate the wide range of 17th and 18th century art.
Among them are works of art already known from previous exhibitions as well as new acquisitions, donations and rediscoveries from the old collection that have rarely been exhibited, have not been exhibited for a long time or have never been exhibited before. A special focus is a selection of Bozzetti - small-format oil sketches that served as preparation for paintings and ceiling frescoes.
