Anniversary publication of the Belvedere The Belvedere in Vienna
epitomizes the changes that have taken place over the course of
three centuries in the concept of what constitutes a museum.
Originally built by Prince Eugene of Savoy to enhance his prestige
as a prince, under Maria Theresa, the Upper Belvedere became one of
the world’s first public museums. The idea of presenting Austrian
art in an international context, which in 1903 motivated the
establishment of the Modern Gallery in the Lower Belvedere, remains
the key objective of this world-famous cultural institution. In
this critical homage, renowned authors explore enduring questions
that transcend the different epochs, such as : What ordering
concepts are evident in art presentation ? How contemporary were
these presentations in an international context ? What kind of
public were they aimed at ? Anniversary publication of the
Österreichische Galerie Belvedere: a critical homage to a place of
art with a diverse history spanning centuries Exhibition until
