Vienna 2018-03-06 2nd visit to Upper Belvedere lunch & post-lunch

A few shots from the cafe and my delicious "echt Wien" lunch of some kind of goulash. Followed by a visit to some of the other galleries on the floor with the Kilmts & Schieles, including a favorite of mine, Segatini, which, sadly, was behind glass so couldn't get a good picture because of the glare from the windows opposite. :|




To give you a sense of "The Kiss" scale.










Doesn't one of these look like he's missing something?





Hands taking a page from Schiele? or visa versa?

Vienna 2018-03-06 2nd visit to Upper Belvedere mostly Rueland Frueauf der Älter

Should have posted this before the previous works since I apparently entered the galleries at the end of the exhibition. Of course there's one sculpture that isn't by him. See if you can guess which it is.

Vienna 2018-03-06 2nd visit to Upper Belvedere

Photos today from my 2nd trip to the Belvedere where I visited some of the earlier-art galleries. On the way I saw a cherub in a baby carriage on the tram who reminded me of someone I know who also wore an eye patch when she was younger. :) Enjoy

Reminds me of some of the hats I saw at the
Royal wedding last weekend. And this on a guy.
