Ausgestellter

Ausgestellter is a German attributive adjective meaning “displayed” or “exhibited.” It is formed from the verb ausstellen, which means to exhibit or to display. Used before a noun, it indicates that the noun is on display, as in contexts such as museums, galleries, or trade shows.

Inflection and examples. The form changes with gender, number, and case: masculine nominative singular is ausgestellter (ein ausgestellter Ring), feminine nominative singular is ausgestellte (eine ausgestellte Leistung), neuter nominative singular is ausgestelltes (ein ausgestelltes Exponat). Plural forms after a definite article are ausgestellten (die ausgestellten Objekte). In the indefinite plural you would typically use ausgestellte Objekte or rely on the article for proper endings.

Usage and context. Ausgestellter commonly appears in museum labels, catalog entries, exhibition notices, and product descriptions where items are on display. It helps specify that an object is part of an exhibition or permanently displayed display. Related terms include Ausstellung (exhibition), Aussteller (exhibitor), and Ausstellungsstück (exhibit item).

Notes. The term is distinct from the predicative use ausgestellten, which appears after a subject with a verb like ist (das Exponat ist ausgestellt = the exhibit is on display). While closely related to the noun form Ausstellung, ausgestellter functions specifically as an adjective describing the displayed status of a noun.
