Van Gogh in Vienna
I was rummaging trough my countless photo’s and found this one of many people queuing for a Van Gogh exhibition of the Albertina Museum in Vienna. It was December 7, 2008, the last day before the exhibition would close. It was a rainy day and I would hate to stand in a queue in the rain, but I remembered being proud and therefor taking this very photo: It was a Dutch painter they were all waiting for in the rain….Just reviving my What are you thinking about series…
Great photo. Probably very few artists living today would be worth waiting in line for. Van Gogh a true genius. And Vienna is a beautiful city. Everything for the visitor is within walking distance. Museums, galleries, hotels, great cafe’s and beautiful architecture. Love Vienna.
I am an art lover and i keep on visiting exhibitions no matter is organized at a nearby location or somewhere far depending upon the type of exhibition. Standing in queues is the worst part of it and many time i had to stand in queue for hrs and then too i used to had hard luck getting the entry pass.
