Castle Schleissheim, a photo from Bayern, Ouest

Photographer's Note

Elector Max Emanuel, who was hoping to become the next emperor, had the New Palace built as his future residence. Originally planned as a four-wing complex, it was begun in the winter of 1700/01 under the well-known court architect Henrico Zuccalli.The unfortunate outcome of the Spanish War of Succession, which forced Max Emanuel into exile in 1704, brought the building work to a halt after scarcely more than the shell of the main wing had been built. It was not until the elector returned from his Paris exile in 1715 that the work could be resumed.Because of the financial situation in the country, however, the original plan consisting of a cour d'honneur complex with massive side wings, further pavilions and the Old Palace on the west side was gradually simplified. Finally all that remained of the large-scale design was the monumental main tract – the New Palace – without the wings that would have connected it to the Old Palace.On the death of Max Emanuel at the end of February 1726, the palace complex had not yet been completed, but most of the main building was finished. Many of the rooms were still incomplete and the missing fixtures such as marble fireplaces, wall coverings, panelling and flooring were only gradually installed afterwards by Max Emanuel's son and successor, Karl Albrecht (reigned 1726-45).
With the art collection begun by Elector Max Emanuel, Schleißheim New Palace was already a gallery palace by the end of the 18th century, and was increasingly made accessible to the public. This tradition is continued by the State Gallery of European Baroque Art, part of the Bavarian State Collection of Paintings, which is today housed in the electoral apartments and halls. It comprises works of all the main schools of this art epoch. In 2001, 300 years after the foundation stone of the New Palace was laid, this unique baroque gallery was reopened with a new layout after comprehensive restoration work.

Max III Joseph (reigned 1745-77), grandson of Max Emanuel and the last elector of the Old Bavarian line of the House of Wittelsbach, had the guards' hall turned into a dining hall and commissioned two richly carved palace portals from the Bavarian sculptor Ignaz Günther

Witaj Jurek, koniec zdjęć z włoskiej wycieczki? Jakoś krótko byłeś. Fajne zdjęcie, wygląda mi na hdr, ale taki delikatny. Fantastyczna ostrość, jakby ktoś delikatnym piórkiem rysował. Imponująca bydowla, a nigdy o takim pałacu nie słyszałam.

Pozdrawiam

Małgorzata

Witaj Jurek,
Na szczegolna uwage zasluguje tutaj PP- jak juz kiedys wspomnialem, podobaja mi sie zdjecia na pograniczu grafiki. Musze przyznac, ze zdjecie idealnie wywazone pod wzgledem tonalnym a kolorystyka mila dla oczu.
Pozdrawiam serdecznie,
Darek

Hi Georg
HDR as it seems, you have applied just the right effect to make it look like an illustration of a building to be built, and in that I find it interesting because we do not see often such illustrations of ancient buildings
Have a nice day JY

Czesc,
super palac chociaz architektura troche "koszarowa", bez wielu ozdobnikow. Ciekawe musza byc wnetrza, potezna kubatura. Obiekt ma interesujaca historie jak wynika z opisu. £adna fotografia dobrej jakosci (HDR daje sie zauwazyc).
Pozdr. Al.

Looks a lot more like a palace than a castle, at all; nice palace it is!
Very good photo, colors are quite unusual.

snunney (130967) 2009-07-13 4:15

Hello Georg,
A wonderful long perspective along this massive and beautiful place. The panoramic format is well chosen to the heighten the feeling of length. Superb detail.

The wideangled, panoramic format suits the subject perfectly. Excellent sharpness, & I like the yellow vs blue colour contrast. Tfs!

Hello Georg,
A very special light that makes the photo look as an old tableau. Clear and sharp and the chateau well shown in its green surroundings. You can almost hear the clop clop from the approaching horse carriage...
Regards,
Paul
