Ferdinand Georg Waldmüller: “True to Nature” At the Belvedere
The Lower Belvedere will host “Ferdinand Georg Waldmüller: True to Nature” from 27 February to 14 June 2026, presenting the Austrian Biedermeier master’s landscape and genre works. The show places Waldmüller’s depictions of the Vienna Woods, Salzkammergut, and rural life alongside contemporaries such as John Constable and Jean‑Baptiste Camille Corot. It highlights his commitment to painting nature as it existed, reflecting a broader 19th‑century shift toward realism amid industrialization. Visitors will see how his art served both aesthetic and cultural functions, bridging personal customs and the natural world.
