The Rosengart Collection Museum (Museum Sammlung Rosengart) is an art museum located in Lucerne, Switzerland. It houses a collection of modern art based on two main artists: Paul Klee and Pablo Picasso.[1][2]
His Klee collection is the largest in private hands after that of the artist's family.[5][7] Some of his Picassos were exhibited at the musée Picasso de Lucerne opened in 1978 by the Rosengarts, to celebrate the 800th anniversairy of the city.[7][8]
His only daughter, Angela, founded the Fondation Rosengart in 1992.[5][9] The Rosengart Collection opened in March 2002 and received more than 100,000 visitors in the following twelve months.[10]
