A volume from the series "Small Bavarian Biographies". Leo von Klenze (1784-1864) was one of the most important representatives of classicism in Germany. As the favoured architect of King Ludwig I, he rose to the top of Bavarian architecture within a very short time. The buildings, monuments, streets and squares he designed still characterise the appearance of Munich today.
Evidence of Klenze's work can be found not only in Bavaria, but also in Athens and St. Petersburg, among other places. This easy-to-read, compact biography focuses on the close collaboration between Ludwig I and Klenze as well as on the foundation of the "new" Munich and traces the most important stages of Klenze's international career.
