Neue Pinakothek
The Neue Pinakothek is an art museum in Munich specializing in European painting from the 18th and 19th centuries. Travelers visit this institution to view a collection that represents the evolution of art during this period, bridging the gap between the classical styles of the Alte Pinakothek and the modern works found in other nearby galleries.
