Vienna City Breaks 2012 - 150 Years of Klimt

Dec. 9, 2011 - PRLog -- Gustav Klimt would have celebrated his 150th Birthday in 2012. Vienna marks the year by honouring the painter with several special exhibitions on his life and work.   Klimt spent most of his life in Vienna. His best-known painting "The Kiss" can now be seen at the Vienna Belvedere. The “KLIMT – The Collection of the Wien Museum” exhibition is also being held between the 16th May and 16th September 2012 .  

The Historical Museum of the City of Vienna will present a wealth of Klimt-related objects from its own holdings, including the painter’s Portrait of Emilie Flöge (1902), posters, publications, the artist’s painting smock, his death mask, and Egon Schiele’s drawing of the dead Gustav Klimt. The centrepiece of the exhibition, however, will be the 400 Klimt drawings, the largest collection of its kind in the world, which will be shown here for the first time in its entirety.  

Dertour offers a two night package to Vienna priced from £599 per person to include flights between London Gatwick and Vienna, taxi transfer between airport and hotel, two nights accommodation on bed and breakfast basis at the Design-Hotel ‘The Levante Parliament’, three course Candle Lit Dinner in the hotel restaurant ‘Nemtoi’, museum ticket for the Belvedere Palace – where ‘The Kiss’ is on display plus a two hour exclusive city tour in a chauffeured limousine.
