Summary
The Czech-Bavarian exhibition Emperor Charles IV 1316-2016, marking the 700th anniversary of the birth of this outstanding ruler, will present an exceptional selection of cultural and artistic artefacts from his era. The exhibition will present Charles IV as a unique figure of Europe's political and cultural history, a pious, well-educated, single-minded and judicious ruler, who did not hesitate to use a wide range of diplomatic means, including ruse and tactics, to attain his goals. One of the typical features of Charles' ruling concept was the programmatic use of arts and architecture to promote the imperial majesty. Charles IV has gone down in history as one of the most generous patron of arts and founders as well as one of the most often depicted rulers in mediaeval Europe's history. The exhibition seeks answers to such questions by means of 170 exhibits of all disciplines in art and arts and crafts, cultural-historical documents loaned by more than a hundred most prestigious European and U.S. museums and church and private collections. Exhibition: National Gallery, Waldstein Riding School, Prague, Czech Republic (15.05.-25.09.2016) / Germanisches Nationalmuseum, Nuremberg, Germany (20.10.2016 - 05.03.2017).
