Leo Von Klenze

Klenze, Leo Von

Born Feb. 29, 1784, in Schladen, in present-day Lower Saxony, in the Federal Republic of Germany; died Jan. 27, 1864, in Munich. German architect.

Klenze, who studied in Germany, France, and Italy, was the court architect for Jérôme Bonaparte in Kassel from 1808 to 1813. Beginning in 1815 he held a similar position in the court of the Bavarian king Ludwig I in Munich. His public buildings in Munich (from 1816) and Athens (1839–51) are distinguished by a stately and austere regularity. In his massive and imposing buildings, such as the Glyptothek (1816–30, Munich), the Old Pinakothek (1826–36, Munich), and the New Hermitage (1839–52, Leningrad), Klenze combined various motifs from ancient Greek architecture, reproducing them with punctilious accuracy and coldness.
