Its latest exhibition collection presents masterpieces of the Modern, spanning Monet to Picasso and Baselitz. As the largest Habsburg residential palace, the Albertina dominates the southern tip of the Imperial Palace on one of the last remaining fortress walls in Vienna. On permanent display in the Albertina's new exihibition collection are the most exciting art movements of the last 130 years: from French impressionism to German expressionism to the Russian avant garde and the present. Monet's "Water Lily Pond", Degas' "Dancers" and Renoir's "Girl" can be gazed at in wonder, as can paintings by Beckmann, Macke, Chagall, Malevich, Rothko, Rainer and Katz.

The State Rooms in shining yellow, green and turquoise, partly furnished with original furniture, transport visitors back to the time of their inhabitants. Both the entire gilding of the carvings with the special alloy "Albertina gold" and the artistic parquet floors with rose and ebony intarsia are worth a look. #Albertina #Albertinamuseum #MonetToPicasso #Habsburger #Hofburg #HofburgVienna #AlbertinaVienna #Museum #Vienna Read more about the Albertina: https://www.wien.info/en/sightseeing/museums-exhibitions/top/albertina-338608 //// Music: Colorful by Oran Loyfer - Artlist El Ultimo Bucardo by ANBR - Artlist //// Credits: Presenter: Adia Trischler Idea & Concept: UNIT http://www.unit.co.at Script: Stefan Schlager Producer: Alex Haberfellner Camera: Bernhard Popovic, Andreas Graf Editing & Animation: Thomas Scharf Colors: 61 colorgrading, http://www.61.co.at Audio: Overdub, Gregor Rašek Produced by UNIT //// To be sure not to miss anything subscribe to our channel http://www.youtube.com/Vienna Find all info about Vienna at http://www.vienna.info Viennas Facebook Account: https://www.facebook.com/ViennaTouristBoard Vienna twitters at: https://twitter.com/viennainfob2b Vienna's Instagram Account: https://instagram.com/viennatouristboard/

In the middle of the city center, you can marvel at the splendor and magnificence that made up the everyday life of the former imperial family on a visit of the private chambers and staterooms. Numerous museums and collections represent the imperial family’s passion for art. Historically developed complex: The Imperial Palace, which until 1918 was inhabited by the imperial family, was originally a castle built in the thirteenth century, which was extended to a splendid residence in accordance with the increasing power of the Habsburgs and the expansion of their realm. Today, the Imperial Palace houses the office of the Federal President as well as an important congress center and numerous art collections. Historic Heldenplatz, once planned as an extensive imperial forum, is dominated by the monumental equestrian statues of Prince Eugen and Archduke Karl.
