1000 Meisterwerke was a German art series. It was the German version of the British 100 Great Paintings. From 1980 through 1994, the German broadcaster WDR produced the series, which was broadcast by ARD, ORF and BR. In each of the 10-minute broadcasts, a single painting was presented and analyzed by an art historian. The Sunday evening broadcasts had five million viewers.
