The collection originates from the legacy of art historian Werner Sumowski (1931–2015), the foremost scholar of Rembrandt and his school, author of more than twenty-one volumes of reference which remain fundamental in the academic field. His library and his collection of drawings and prints constitute a direct testimony to decades of research devoted to the European graphic tradition.
