The Albertina Museum is located in the palace of Archduke Albrecht (Albert) - the son-in-law of Maria Theresa. She transferred the court from here, for which she bought a private palace on HerrenStrasse. Her daughter and her husband lived here after they returned from Bratislava, where they served as envoys of the Habsburg house in Hungary. There was founded a picture collection, which moved to this building. In 1792, the Archduke assembled a large collection in the Austrian Netherlands, where he also served as the envoy of the crown. Albrecht had no children and the couple was known as high connoisseurs of art. The permanent collection of Albertina's collection totals about a million paintings and drawings from the Renaissance to the present day, but the most interesting are temporary exhibitions. We got to the Monet exhibition. Translated with Google Translate
From Stephansplatz through the ancient Karststrasse to the Albertina Gallery. In Albertine, there was a Monet exhibition, when the works of this artist were brought from different museums of the world and exhibited together, presenting the same places at different times of the year or at different times of the day. And the walk ended on the square of the old market, the funny story of Mark Twain. Translated with Google Translate
