Itinerary
The Albertina is one of the brand museums in Vienna. Its graphic collection is known all over the world, but the museum offers it to the public in small portions. To see the most famous pieces, you will have to plan your visit for a particular exhibition, waiting for which can take a few years, or settle for the copies in display, which is not that bad at all. Permanent exhibitions of the Albertina are represented by modernist art and avant-garde. Even though there are no famous pieces among the canvases of the Batliner’s collection from the point of view of the Western history of art, it makes it perfectly suitable for studying almost all kinds of artistic ‘-isms’ of the turn of the 20th century, since it is easier to trust our own feelings when it comes to perceiving the pieces that have not been claimed a masterpiece. The best collection of the Albertina is also great for studying the artistic features required by the modern art, such as seriation, contextuality, intention and the link to the artist’s personality, etc. So, if you feel like you understand the tenderness Toulouse-Lautrec experienced when drawing his horse named Gazelle, you will easily find an approach to the works of Tracey Emin and Hermann Nitsch.

So worth the booking. Learned so much and loved. All the in between stories around the journey of art development in this country and all of Europe
Thank you so much, Adele! It was a real pleasure exploring the many ways of seeing European art with you — I hope to welcome you back for another inspiring visit soon!
It is worth having a guided tour with someone who really knows what you are going to see and gives you the time to explain yourself and solve your doubts
¡Muchas gracias, Salomon! Fue un verdadero placer acompañarte en tu visita al Museo Albertina. Me alegra mucho saber que disfrutaste del recorrido y que la explicación te ayudó a comprender mejor las obras. Para mí, es muy importante que cada visitante se sienta libre de preguntar y tomarse el tiempo necesario para disfrutar del arte a su ritmo. Gracias por tu confianza y tus amables palabras. ¡Ojalá volvamos a encontrarnos en otra visita! Un cordial saludo, Julia
My husband and I learned so much about art, it’s history, what is art, why are some pieces of art valuable as well as many technical aspects about paintings in this short tour! I will visit art museums now with a completely different perspective. It broadened my understanding and appreciation of art!
Dear Laurel, I am truly gratified by your words about this experience at the Albertina. It was a pleasure to have you as my curious companions, to answer your questions and to have discussions with you. Thank you very much!
Enchanting museum, a fundamental stop for art lovers. Evocative and fascinating, the Albertina literally left me speechless!
Hello Maria, I am happy that you loved the Albertina. Please write to them directly as you posted your review to the company that offers private tours (also in Albertina), but they and not me should take credit for having such a great collection. Kind regards, Julia
