2 June - 27 August 2023

History painting has always enjoyed a special status and was long viewed as the capstone of any artist’s career. It encompasses history in a comprehensive sense and deals with human doings, human sentiments, and human passions. It is in classicist works that history painting reached its zenith. This Albertina Museum exhibition, which primarily features works from the museum’s own holdings, tells of prominent historical occurrences as well as events from religious history, mythology, and the world of ancient deities.
