Culture-oriented trip to Madrid - The Tyssen-Bornemisza Museum's collection - The first Floor galleries - The 19th of August 2016



(...)

I walked down onto the first floor galleries where I came across several paintings by some of my favourite painters. I was unfortunately not able to photograph both Van Gogh's on display because of light problems, but I did manage to photograph those by Chagall, Pissarro, Picasso, Modigliani, Césanne, Gauguin and Lucien Freud amongst others.  
The Thyssen-Bornemisza contains one of the world's foremost and most distinguished private Art collections acquired by the Spanish State in 1993 to be installed in the Palacio de Villahermosa turned into this incredible Museum.
