Liechtenstein

Liechtenstein is one of the smallest European states, a principality situated between Austria and Switzerland in the Upper Rhine Valley. The nation is less than three hundred years old, but the ruling family, whose name it bears, traces its lineage back to the twelfth century. For successive generations, members of the Princely House of Liechtenstein have been devoted art collectors. With a high degree of appreciation of artistic achievement, they have pursued a centuries-long family tradition of acquiring not only great paintings and sculpture but also rare firearms, fine porcelain, and other works of art. The result of this tradition is a collection of masterpieces that in its depth and breadth reflects more than four hundred years of European history and ranks among the world's greatest private collections. This publication accompanies an exhibition at The Metropolitan Museum of Art that marked the first time the masterpieces from this private collection were put on public display. The rich and varied array of paintings, sculpture, and other works included in this exhibition not only represents the paradigm of a great European princely collection, but also has the added distinction of being the collection of the only surviving monarchy of the Holy Roman Empire. -- Metropolitan Museum of Art website.

Liechtenstein is a small, landlocked country located between Austria and Switzerland. It is the sixth smallest country in the world, with an area of only 160 square kilometers and a population of approximately 38,000 people. The country's economy is largely based on the financial sector, and it is known for its strict banking secrecy laws. Liechtenstein is also known for its beautiful Alpine scenery and its historic castles, which are popular tourist attractions. Liechtenstein has a long and fascinating history. The country was founded in 1719 by the Liechtenstein family, who purchased the territory from the Austrian Empire. For many years, Liechtenstein was closely aligned with Austria, and the two countries shared a common currency until the 1920s. In the 20th century, Liechtenstein became increasingly independent and developed its own unique culture and identity. Today, it is a prosperous and thriving country, with a high standard of living and a strong economy.
