PROGRAM
Franz Xaver Messerschmidt achieved success early in his career as a sculptor. Later, myths grew around his supposedly reclusive personality. But his famous “Character Heads” in fact mirror his own time: the eighteenth century and the Enlightenment, an age that reassessed the meaning of the individual. This guided tour offers an introduction to Messerschmidt’s work, his artistic parallels, and the scientific theories that have framed its interpretation.
* This price is a lump sum for a sixty-minute guided tour for groups of max. 20 people during standard opening hours. Should your group comprise more than 20 people, we will arrange additional guided tours at the applicable rate. Excl. entrance tickets.
For exclusive evening tours outside of opening hours, please contact our event department via events@belvedere.at.
Silent Systems are used for the tour.
