Art Meets Literature

Please note: This tour will be given in German.
Adeline Jaeger was always drawn to Düsseldorf, where she wanted to paint, study art and enjoy life. Pressured by her family, however, she married a pastor, had children and had little time left for art. In her memoirs, she looks back on this time with melancholy, but also with reflection. At the beginning of the event, passages from the memoir will be read passages before visitors take a guided tour of Jaeger’s artworks in the exhibition “Women Artists. From Monjé to Münter”.
