Founded in 1844 by Prince Miloš Obrenović, this museum presents a very complete panorama of Serbian archaeology and art, as well as a very rich collection of impressionist painters, especially French masters. It is the best museum in the capital.

The1st floor is devoted to medieval religious frescoes and paintings: among the works on display will be frescoes of medieval Serbian art from the monasteries of Đurđevi Stupovi, Gradac or Prizren. The same floor houses Serbian painting from the 18th and 19th centuries, romantic, realistic or impressionist.

But it ison the2nd floor that the masterpieces in this area are located, including a superb Virgin and Child by Tintoretto, Renoir's Women in the Bath, a Tahitian vahine by Gauguin, and Vlaminck's Snow .

The museum's cellars contain priceless treasures: there are more than 1,100 masterpieces signed by the greatest artists: Van Gogh, Titian, Picasso, but also Bonnard, Derain, Gauguin, Monet, Pissarro, Renoir. This eclectic collection belonged to the Serbian Jewish collector Erich Šlomović who inherited it in 1939 from his friend, also a collector, Ambroise Vollard, a dealer of impressionists, who was familiar with Matisse and Picasso during his lifetime. After the war, Erich's mother Roza recovered the paintings in Serbia and gave them to the museum in 1951. Since then, however, the Šlomović collection has been the subject of a legal battle between Vollard and Herzler's heirs!

Musée des Beaux Arts
L'équivalent des musées des Beaux Arts en France, cet établissement très bien entretenu est des plus complets. Je recommande pour toute visite de la capitale !

Réouvert il y a peu, le musée est moderne, bien indiqué et contient de belles pièces et une logique chronologique très réussie ! A ne pas manquer, gratuit le dimanche ;)
