Pregled korpusa umetnika Otto Mengelberg, mapiran ne po datumu, već po tematici. Žice predstavljaju ono što su slikali; prstenovi označavaju vreme; a niti između zvezda otkrivaju pokrovitelje i mesta koja ih tajno povezuju.
Svaki krug u atlasu grupiše dela prema onome što prikazuju: portrete, religiozne scene, mitologije i naučna istraživanja. Kliknite na jedan od segmenata kako biste taj skup pomerili na vrh.
Udaljenost od centra označava vreme. Najunutrašniji prsten predstavlja najraniji period; najudaljeniji, poslednje godine. Stil sazreva kako se krećete ka spoljašnjim krugovima.
Obojene linije povezuju dela koja su ujedinjena istim pokroviteljem, narudžbinom ili temom. Pratite kontekst kako biste videli kako se povezani klasteri osvetljavaju kroz različite teme.
