Stop At: Osterreichisches Theatermuseum, Lobkowitzplatz 2, Vienna 1010 Austria

Palais Lobkowitz hosts at the moment the collection of the Academy of Fine Arts (to the November 2020)
The collection of the Academy of Fine Arts is a miniature museum of the history of arts; its current exhibition is seemingly designed to show what young artists had to pay attention to in order to become new titians and van dycks. This is why the gallery contains numerous examples of ‘stories’, paintings illustrating antique historical plots, sword-and-sandal installations of a kind of the pre-cinema era, such as Baby Moses Trampling on the Pharaoh’s Crown or Suicide of Cato. The Academy is also the only place in Vienna where you can find Italian art of the early Renaissance. And the grand altar of Hieronymus Bosch, of course. The Last Judgment is the best painting by this mysterious Dutch artist in Austria and, quite possibly, in the world.
