German Wikipedia, viewed Jan. 13th, 2025 (Albrecht V (der Grossmütige), born February 29, 1528 in Munich; died October 24, 1579 in Munich ; was Duke of Bavaria from March 7, 1550 to October 24, 1579. His reign was just as important for the spread of the Counter-Reformation in Germany as it was for the development of Renaissance art in the Duchy of Bavaria. The foundation of many Bavarian state collections can be traced back directly to Albrecht's passion for collecting.)
