Stepping out with Monet

The Albertina Museum

The stairway to Monet at the Albertina.

The Albertina museum in Vienna has a fantastic promotion for its Monet to Picasso show. A set of stairs leading into the museum has a reproduction of  Monet’s The water lily pond, 1917-1919  on it. Basically, each stair has a different slice of the painting adhered to it. The overall effect is amazing. And obviously, picturesque too. There was a bride and groom there on Sunday taking their wedding photos. The stairs are worth checking out if you’re in Vienna, as is the museum itself. Of course.

Depending on the way you looked, the stairs seemed to recede.
