The Albertina staircase is a living painting in motion. From a distance, it appears as though people are walking across the artwork. Upon closer inspection, it becomes evident that the image is "cut" into the steps. This innovative presentation is the hallmark advertising approach for every new exhibition at the Albertina.
From Stephansplatz, we meandered through the time-worn cobbles of Karntrashtrasse, arriving at the venerable Albertina Gallery. There, a unique Monet exhibition unfolded before our eyes, uniting his masterpieces from global museums. This collection showcased the same locales captured at varying seasons and times, revealing Monet's genius in a new light. Our stroll culminated at the old market square, where we were delighted by a humorous tale reminiscent of Mark Twain's wit.
