The Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum, nestled in the heart of Madrid, offers a unique journey through art history from the 13th to the late 20th century. With nearly a thousand works on display, the museum showcases major periods and pictorial schools, including Renaissance, Mannerism, Baroque, and Romanticism, as well as movements like Impressionism and Fauvism. It also holds a significant collection of 19th-century American paintings, a rarity in European institutions. The museum's diverse collection provides a comprehensive overview of Western art, filling the historical gaps between its counterparts in the 'Golden Triangle of Art'.
