The Rosengart collection is noted for its outstanding collection of Picasso drawings and paintings. Thanks to a close friendship with Daniel-Henry Kahnweiler, Picasso's principal dealer in France, Siegfried Rosengart represented Picasso in Switzerland. He and his daughter, Angela, organized 8 Picasso exhibitions from 1956 to 1971. In 1978, the Rosengarts donated 8 Picasso paintings to the city of Lucerne to celebrate its 800th anniversary. Angela Rosengart has since donated their Picasso collection (along with classic modern works by Klee, Miró and others) to the Rosengart Foundation in Lucerne and built a museum to house the collection. Picasso's last lithograph is a portrait of Angela Rosengart, dated 1964 (Rueße 857).
