The Jewish Museum Munich recently received the gift of a number of documents and pictures from the Maisons, a Jewish family from southern Germany, who lived in Munich from the second half of the 19th century onward. A family portrait from the Biedermeier period, a book of paintings by family members, a pastel drawing of Hugo von Habermann, and other exhibits illustrate the history of a Jewish family in Munich.
