FURTWANGLER, ADOLF (18531907)

This article appears in Volume V11, Page 367 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: FRA-GAE
FURTWANGLER, ADOLF (18531907) , German archaeologist, was born at Freiburg im Breisgau, and was educated there, at
Leipzig
  and at
Munich
 , where he was a pupil of H. Brunn, whose
comparative
  method in art-criticism he much developed. He took
part
  in the excavations at Olympia in 1878, became an assistant in the Berlin Museum in 188o, and professor at Berlin (1884) and later at
Munich
 . His latest excavation
work
  was at Aegina. He was a prolific writer, with a prodigious knowledge and memory, and a most ingenious and confident critic; and his
work
  not only dominated the field of archaeological criticism but also raised its
standing
  both at
home
  and abroad. Among his numerous publications the most important were a volume on the bronzes found at Olympia, vast works on ancient gems and Greek vases, and the invaluable Masterpieces of Greek Sculpture (
English
 
translation
  by Eugenie Strong). He died at Athens on the loth of October 1907.
