Kristall & Rauch

In 2017, the Museum Schnütgen launched Kristall & Rauch, a single-issue comic that uses the museum's collection of medieval art and artifacts as a springboard for a narrative. This unique publication blends historical scholarship with sequential art, offering a fresh lens on the museum's holdings. It stands as a distinctive example of a museum-produced comic, bridging fine art and pop culture in a single, self-contained story.
