Beschreibung

'Following Alexander von Humboldt's footsteps. A journey of discovery through the Prussian Cultural Heritage Foundation': Starting from Humboldt's letters in the Secret State Archives of Prussian Cultural Heritage Foundation, the book follows the traces of him that are still visible today in the museums and libraries of the Prussian Cultural Heritage Foundation. These traces lead to the objects and manuscripts that he brought back from America and Russia as an explorer, as well as to the art objects and scientific works that were acquired for the former Prussian museums and libraries on his recommendation.
