Here’s an overview of your tour
Calling all art lovers! Want to visit one of Madrid’s most-loved museums? Join me for a private tour of the Thyssen Bornemisza Museum and discover the works of some of Europe’s most infamous painters.
Set in a beautiful Spanish-style building is the fabulous Thyssen Bornemisza Museum. Home to over 1000 pieces of art, this is one of my favorite places in Madrid and I am delighted to share it with you. Throughout our visit, I will give you local insights and historical facts so you get the full picture of the art that you are seeing.
From antique art through to modern pieces, this museum has works from many different art movements. Follow me through the Renaissance and together we will discuss the work of Bigordi. From here we will move into the Post Impressionism era which is dominated by the paintings of Dutch artist Vincent Van Gogh.
We will also explore the museum’s Baroque and Surrealist art movements. Throughout our tour, you will learn not only about the beautiful art around you but also about the history of each of these periods.
I am happy to personalize this tour to your wishes. Just let me know if you have any special requests.
