Exploring Vienna while visiting museums.
One of Vienna's most recent edition of a modern museum
At the entrance of the Leopold museum, now Clare's most favorite museum ever. She was inspired by not only her long-time favorite Gustav Klimt, but was also pleased to discover Klimt's muse and inspiration, Egon Scheile.
Taking a break before entering themuseum
One of Klimt's lesser known works
Spooky, but moving?!
Another Klimt work, oddly reminiscent of Monet?
The museum was filled with works that simply took our breath away.
Some of Scheile's more famous work.
