Description

Meet your guide at the Reina Sofía Museum in Madrid. Dedicated to Spanish art, highlights of the museum include super collections of Spain's three greatest 20th-century artists - Pablo Picasso, Salvador Dalí, and Joan Miró. Get a close look at Picasso's 'Guernica' mural-sized oil painting, regarded by many as one of the most powerful anti-war works of art in history. Learn about 20th-century art movements, such as abstract art, cubism, surrealism, and modernism, and admire important works by principal artists in a beautiful museum that was formerly an elegant hospital building. Take a look at the vaulted hallways, and enjoy a walk in the gardens to admire the building from the outside. Explore the hallways and galleries of the museum with your guide, and learn how and why the talented artists on display created their art. Once the guided visit is over, you can stay inside the museum, where you are free to continue exploring it independently. Along with stunning works from Spain, the museum puts on temporary exhibitions by international artists in its many galleries, making it one of the world's largest museums for modern and contemporary art.
