Bruegel and the Old Masters: A Kunsthistorisches Museum Tour
Overview
This exciting tour, led by art historian Jan Kepinski, takes you through the Kunsthistorisches Museum (KHM), Vienna's Art History Museum, with a special focus on Pieter Bruegel the Elder, one of the 16th century's most celebrated painters. The KHM holds the largest Bruegel collection in the world — roughly a third of his surviving paintings.
Beyond Bruegel, we'll take in the museum's other icons: Raphael's Madonna of the Meadow, Titian's Venetian masterpieces, Velázquez's royal Habsburg portraits, Vermeer's The Art of Painting, Rembrandt's self-portraits, Dürer, Caravaggio, Correggio, Rubens, and Arcimboldo's astonishing composite heads.
Jan is an art historian, a state-licensed Austria Guide, and a master storyteller. The tour suits newcomers seeking an introduction to art history just as well as seasoned Bruegel enthusiasts.
You will leave with a rich understanding of art across the Renaissance and Baroque, set against the backdrop of one of the finest museums in the world.
