The Belvedere, built in the 18th century for Prince Eugene of Savoy, ranks among the most beautiful Baroque landmarks in Europe and is recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Already under Maria Theresa and Joseph II, the Upper Belvedere was transformed into a venue for the Imperial collections in 1781, making it one of the world’s first public museums. Today, the Belvedere houses the most important collection of Austrian art from the Middle Ages to the present, enriched by works of international artists. Highlights include the world’s largest collection of Gustav Klimt paintings, key works by Egon Schiele and Oskar Kokoschka, as well as outstanding examples of Viennese Biedermeier and French Impressionism. The Marble Hall, where the Austrian State Treaty was signed in 1955, stands as a historic site of global significance. The Lower Belvedere, originally Prince Eugene’s residence, now hosts temporary exhibitions that focus on Austrian art in an international context.

Dorotheum is a sponsor of the scholarly project dedicated to the compilation of catalogues raisonnés of major Austrian artists at the Belvedere. This renowned publication series includes monographs on Alfred Wickenburg, Marc Adrian, Franz Xaver Messerschmidt, Hans Makart, Tina Blau, and Carl Moll-
