Mozart composed his first piece at five. A prince-archbishop built a palace for his secret mistress. And during a siege, Salzburgers repainted one bull over and over to trick an entire army. This audio walking tour takes you through such real stories behind Salzburg’s most beautiful streets. Starting at Mozart’s Residence, you’ll follow a carefully mapped route through baroque squares, medieval lanes, and Sound of Music filming locations – including the garden where "Do-Re-Mi" was shot and the stage where the Von Trapps performed their final concert. Along the way, hear about Europe’s oldest restaurant, visit a cemetery that inspired a Hollywood set, and discover why locals call themselves "bull washers." No schedules, no waiting for groups – just press play and walk. The app provides audio commentary, maps and photos at every stop. Available in 9 languages. Works offline. Start anytime and take as long as you like.

The Vienna Museum of Art History's collection is the best place to see and to understand what distinguishes a brilliant artist from the wonderful and the good from the mediocre. If you want not only to walk through the museum and enjoy the works of Rembrandt, Rubens, Vermeer, Raphael and Caravaggio, but also aspire to understand what distinguishes their works from those of their less famous contemporaries, this tour is for you. In Peter Bruegel's largest world collection, we'll take a closer look at The Hunters in the Snow to understand why it was in the 20th century that this painting became the “cold distant peak of unattainable art“, and why it was a huge risk to choose such a controversial subject in the 16th century. We will look at the requirements for Rubens' work and see the difference between works made for his powerful commissioners and those created for his own pleasure. The Capture of Samson by his disciple Antonis van Dyck will make it clear to us which qualities of his work have allowed him to occupy a separate place in the history of art, at least equal to his teachers. Vermeer's work The Allegory of The Art and Caravaggio's Madonna with the Beads will show us the most virtuoso showcase of mimesis, the main principle of Western aesthetics. And Parmigianino's works in the contrary will show us the first attempts of art to escape from the path of perfect vitality. If you wish to see outstanding art and aspire to understand what makes it great, this art tour is perfect for you.

In this art tour we will go through the collections of one of the most influential museums in the world and detail selected works by Titian, Rubens, Raphael, Velázquez, Belini, as well as look at the codes of beauty depicted in ancient Greek sculpture. This tour is suitable for those who are interested in the topic of human beauty and want to experience the collection in an unconventional and engaging way. Before the tour begins, I will offer you tests so that you can record your intuitive perceptions of beauty. Some of these tests are used by scientists to reveal the evolutionary assumptions of attractiveness. Afterwards, we'll go through the collections of one of the world's finest art museums to examine together images of goddesses and courtesans, historical figures and mythical heroines. Themes & Artworks: • Titian's "Diana and Сalypso" will give us some insight into the secret of the attraction of the little foot. • Tintoretto's "Susanna in the Bath" will tell us the basic principle of attraction for the flawless skin. • Peter Paul Rubens' "The Little Fur Coat" will comment on her attitude to the Body Positivity movement. • Ancient Egyptian sarcophagi will explain the popularity of push-up bras. • We'll look at the rules of the golden ratio in Greek sculpture, Dutch painting and in plastic surgery. On this tour of the Kunsthistorisches Museum, we will not only explore masterpieces of art, we will discuss the question of whether female and male attractiveness is purely a matter of taste or whether our ideas of beauty have an evolutionary basis. And we will also find examples where fashion and the pursuit of status have played a major role.

We'll begin our tour with the collection's most prized possession -- The Last Judgment by Hieronymus Bosch. The modern viewer is amazed by the inferno in his famous triptych, rather than frightened. It mixes chimeras in the form of half snakes and half eggs, fear of wars and epidemics. And a great deal of the artist's personal frustrations. I invite you to look closely at the details of the painting. Cranach's The Holy Family, as well as the obe by Jos van Klewe, will reveal the origins of the family portrait genre to us, while the religious paintings of the Quattrocento and Cinquecento art will disclose the rules of making art for religious meditation. And Rubens' The Abduction of Orifia will serve us as an example of what art for sensual pleasure should look like. The most valuable skill for an artist has long been the ability to reveal a complex subject by means of painting. This is why the gallery offers many outstanding examples of "stories" - paintings on biblical or antique subjects, such as Heinrich Füger's Death of Germanicus and Angelo Caroselli's The Suicide of Cato. Together we will try to understand the ideas behind these canvases and to feel how convincing they are for us today.
