Short description

On this small-group tour, and in one language, you will discover the Thyssen-Bornemisza National Museum, one of the most important museums in the capital, located on Paseo del Arte, with your guide. Its permanent collection, with more than 1000 works of art, captures the history of European painting from the Middle Ages to the end of the twentieth century.

Long description

Nearly a thousand works spanning from the thirteenth to the twentieth century have made this museum one of the most outstanding internationally. The Collection includes artists of the stature of Titian, Rubens, Rembrandt, Caravaggio, Manet, Renoir, Van Gogh, Gauguin, Kandinsky, Hopper and Picasso.

This gallery provides numerous examples of foreign painters who had been absent until then: Italian and Flemish primitives, key works of the Renaissance, numerous works from the Impressionist period, such as Monet, Degas, Van Gogh and Gauguin.

It also has outstanding works of the avant-garde of the twentieth century: Fauvism, expressionism, surrealism, abstraction and pop art. We will be able to admire works by two of the main Spanish painters: Picasso and Dalí.

The opening of the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum in 1992 gave rise, when it joined the Prado Museum and the Reina Sofia, to the so-called Art Triangle of the Paseo del Prado, an area that concentrates the most important pictorial collection in Spain, today recognized as a World Heritage Site.
