Where is the Golden Triangle of Art in Madrid?<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

All three art museums of the Golden Triangle are located by the Paseo del Prado, one of the city\u2019s main boulevards and the oldest historical city street in Madrid.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

It\u2019s an easy walk along this leafy avenue, with an approximately 20-minute total walk time between all three landmarks of the Golden Triangle. Alternatively, you can take public transport to each landmark, and save your legs for wandering the gallery halls.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

You\u2019ll find masterpieces from some of the most renowned artists of this era including El Greco, Ruben, Titian, Goya, Vel\u00e1zquez, and Hieronymus Bosch. Keep your eyes peeled for some of their most famous works, including \u201cLas Meninas\u201d by Vel\u00e1zquez, \u201cThe Third of March of 1808\u201d by Goya, and \u201cThe Garden of Earthly Delights\u201d by Hieronymus Bosch.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Immerse yourself in the world of surrealism, expressionism and cubism and be sure to stop by the free-access art library. It features a collection of over 100,000 books, over 3,500 sound recordings, and around 1,000 videos.

Thyssen-Bornemisza National Museu<\/strong>m<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum<\/a> began as a private collection in the 1920s by Heinrich, Baron Thyssen-Bornemisza de K\u00e1szon and later, Heinrich’s son Baron Hans Heinrich Thyssen-Bornemisza. With over 1,600 paintings, it was once the world\u2019s second largest private collection after the British Royal Collection.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The collection was originally housed in the family estate in Lugano, but the Baron’s plans to build an extension were rejected. The Baron began the search to find a better-suited location to house his incredible collection. He received numerous proposals from museums around the world.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In 1985, the Baron married Carmen “Tita” Cervera (a former Miss Spain) and he became persuaded to relocate his collection to Spain. He signed a contract with the Spanish government in 1988 and the museum opened its doors in 1992.\u00a0The Baroness remains involved with the museum and she even chose the salmon pink hue of the interior walls.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

As the final piece in the Golden Triangle, Thyssen-Bornemisza is the perfect complement to El Prado and El Reina Sof\u00eda. It displays artists that are absent or underrepresented from the other two, including renowned European artists such as Rembrandt, Paolo, Duccio, and Rubens.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
