Johann Heiß. Swabian master of baroque splendor
closed (18.10.2002–2.9.2003)

Since the 1967 exhibition at the Ulm Museum, Schönfeld has been regarded as the southern German Baroque painter. His father cast a long shadow over his numerous fellow painters, among whom Johann Heiß, whose works were already sought after by collectors throughout Europe during his lifetime, occupies an outstanding position. Against this background, a first retrospective was long overdue.
