Art collector Christoph Müller has gifted approximately 200 works on paper—drawings, prints, and watercolours—to the Kupferstichkabinett (Museum of Prints and Drawings) in Berlin. The gift is being presented in four successive exhibitions at the Gemäldegalerie under the title "Das alles bin ich" (I am all that!), with the final installment, "Leaf by leaf – A life with art," running from 10 March to 14 June 2026. The works span five centuries and originate from Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, and France, covering themes such as nature, portraits, landscapes, history, and everyday life.
This gift matters because it significantly enriches the Kupferstichkabinett's holdings with a broad, multi-century panorama of European art on paper, reflecting both the collector's personal vision and the enduring relevance of works on paper in art history. The multi-part exhibition format allows the public to engage deeply with different thematic facets of the collection, from nature studies to human encounters, highlighting the diversity and continuity of artistic expression across time and geography.
