The third point in the 'Golden Triangle' of Madrid Art, the Thyssen-Bornemisza fills in any gaps in the Prado and Sofia's collections. Its breadth of coverage is impressive, spanning from Italian primitive art, early English, German and Dutch art to works from the Impressionist, Expressionist and Contemporary American schools. Highlights include works by Uccello, Van Eyck and Holbein's portrait of Henry VIII or, at the more recent end of the spectrum, Monet, Picasso, Dali and Kadinsky- but to name a few! The only way to get a real sense of the range of this museum's treasures is to pay it a visit, for it is guaranteed to have something to cater to every artistic preference.
