TIL that "Gesamtkunstwerk" is actually a term used in English.

#Museum #Rijksmuseum

@vicgrinberg isn't that just used as ersatz for the English word of the same meaning? πŸ˜‰
@leanderlindahl πŸ˜‚ in this case, to my understanding, surprisingly not as there is no English word or term with the same clear meaning (eg cabinet of curiosities for Kunstkabinett).

@vicgrinberg @leanderlindahl oh interesting. I looked it up in Wikipedia. And it seems to be a specific concept which does not have a counter part in English and can only be described in more words. Thanks for the info.
