Ralf Warneking has been passionate about fine art’s for the past three decades. The old masters such as Albrecht Durer, Rembrandt and the Barbizon school of painting have been areas of growth and constant discovery. Over the last three years Ralf has been intensely studying the impressionist’s and modern Masters to build on top of his massive knowledge of Old Masters and 19th Century art. It was through a friendship with Michael Schwarz, the owner of the gallery, that Ralf has come to join the team. “What excites me most about Galerie Michael is that our company helps build up museum level collection’s and that our work is historical important and defines beauty.” -Ralf Warneking
