 A highly concentrated selection of works relating to Eugène Delacroix' painting Tasso in the Madhouse, in the Oskar Reinhart Collection ‘Am Römerholz', shed new light on this key work in art history. The wide range of subjects covered in the exhibition and in the accompanying catalogue provided new insights into the self-image of a great artist on the threshold to modern art.
