bavarikon4UTreasures of the Bayerisches Nationalmuseums
The holdings of the Bayerisches Nationalmuseum (Bavarian National Museum) are characterised by their wide-ranging approach to the history of art and culture. This is true from a chronological, spatial and material point of view. In accordance with the founding idea, the core collections about the House of Wittelsbach and about the history of Bavaria were expanded to include separate collections of handcrafted objects, intended to serve artists and artisans as a source of intuition and inspiration. The decisive factor for today's collection was the acquisition of high-quality object collections from several eras of the arts and genres of materials, which also characterise the diverse tour of the museum.
On bavarikon, 3D digitised objects from the holdings of the Bayerisches Nationalmuseum are presented by way of examples:
An ancient ivory relief dated to around 400 AD, which is one of the oldest depictions of the "Resurrection and Ascension of Christ".
The carved "Christ Child with Bunch of Grapes" from 1470 and the alabaster figure "Judith and Holofernes" from 1525-28 as examples of Gothic sculpture.
The "magnificent sword of a margrave of Brandenburg" forged in Milan in 1560 as part of the weapons collection.
The emblem of the Dragon Order, relief embroidery from the early fifteenth century, as an example of the collection of textiles.
