About

Steeped in the dignity of Bavaria, this is a space where light settles down along walls stacked in layers. Not Leonardo da Vinci's 'Mona Lisa,' but filled instead with masterworks of Impressionism carrying Leonardo's very spirit, this place boasts a stillness that seems to defy time. As light from the ceiling flows slowly, visitors come to feel as though they are walking between past and present. The paintings hung on the walls carry a vitality as if they might speak, and the figures within them seem to gaze back at the visitor.
