Munich Residence - Ceiling of the royal privy chapel

I moved to Munich in 1981, to work in a building that is part of the former residence of the Bavarian kings (aptly named “die Residenz”). The servants’ quarters, to be sure, utterly destroyed in WW II, and later rebuilt in a modest fashion. Nevertheless, it is a bit embarrassing having to confess that I have never visited the Museum in another part of the same building, that is: never, until now.

I’ve also posted a picture of the Court Chapel, much bigger than this one, and nice without being lavish. However, being king, one would like to retreat, from time to time, to a less inhibited place, and converse with God as an equal.
