Abstract:
The study deals with the frequency of students from the actual territory of Romania at higher education artistic institutions in the capital of Bavaria between 1808-1935. The author offers some essential reference points in studying at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts, based on four school registers: global number of students, distribution according to historical and geographic zones, social status of students, scholarships, religion and nationality, subjects and specialisations, artistic "migration". The final conclusion refers to the role of model of the München institution considered as a professional "laboratory" of formation that spread a critical and innovative spirit among the intellectual elite of 19th and 20th century Romania.
