Max Emanuel and Johann Wilhelm

Wittelsbach Collectors of the Baroque.

German guided tour

Max Emanuel and Johann Wilhelme Palatinate (1658–1716), are among the great collectors of the House of Wittelsbach. Politically, the two cousins were bitter rivals. As collectors, they had different focuses, but both viewed art as an expression of their absolutist claim to power.
