The French might be calling it "Connaisseur", even the Germans do, but then in German it is rather pretentious to use it,
as German has that perfect word "Kenner".

Even in art history (where connoisseurship is a legitimate method of investigation), Max J. Friedländer's seminal work
"On Art and Connoisseurship" (1942) was published in Germany under the title "Von Kunst und Kennerschaft" (1946).

BTW, bengal-stripe here manages again to show us, that he is, really, a striped Bengel.
