With this partnership, users of the Samsung Art Store can now enjoy masterpieces from the Kunsthistorisches Museum Vienna, which represents Austria, in high definition from the comfort of their homes, following previous collaborations with the Louvre Museum in Paris, France, and the Prado Museum in Madrid, Spain.

Some of the representative works made available through this release include Pieter Bruegel the Elder’s “The Tower of Babel,” Johannes Vermeer’s “The Art of Painting,” and Gustav Klimt’s “Nuda Veritas.” In addition, numerous masterpieces by renowned artists such as Canaletto and Bernardo Bellotto—featuring symbolic landscapes of Venice and Vienna—and Giuseppe Arcimboldo’s “Summer,” as well as works by Rubens, Velázquez, Caravaggio, Titian, Rembrandt, and Raphael, are now on display.

To faithfully convey the impact of the original works, Samsung Electronics combines the high-resolution images provided by the museum with its proprietary anti-reflection display technology to deliver a flawless visual experience. With this anti-reflection technology—which uses a special coating to disperse incoming light from various angles and directions—users can enjoy clear, vivid images of the artwork even in rooms with bright sunlight or artificial lighting, without the interference of glare.

Dr. Jonathan Fine, Director General of the Kunsthistorisches Museum Vienna Group, said, “We are now able to share the museum’s world-renowned collection with viewers around the globe through the Samsung Art Store. Lowering barriers to experiencing great art regardless of location allows more people to appreciate masterpieces, and I hope that the thrilling experience of viewing these works on screen will inspire more visitors to come to the museum in person.”

Dario Casari, President of Samsung Electronics Austria and Switzerland, commented, “The Kunsthistorisches Museum Vienna is a space that not only symbolizes Austrian culture, but has also been a meaningful part of daily life for citizens for many years. Through this partnership, we aim to share the world-class cultural heritage Vienna has preserved throughout its history with global audiences via Samsung’s innovative display technology.”
