The Radical World of Egon Schiele
Our journey begins at the Egon Schiele Art Centrum, housed in a sprawling 16th-century former brewery. Here, we don't just look at paintings; we dive into the scandal. You’ll hear the gripping stories of Schiele’s time in Krumlov—his mother’s birthplace—and how his “immoral” lifestyle and obsession with raw, distorted figures eventually led to his dramatic expulsion from the town. We will explore how the jagged roofs and dark, winding Vltava River influenced his signature style. We’ll gain exclusive entry into private working studios of contemporary local artists.
Bohemian & Moravian Vintages
After immersing ourselves in visual masterpieces, we transition to the art of the palate. We will retreat to a quiet, private setting for a curated wine degustation. You will taste a flight of premium Czech wines, from crisp Bohemian Rieslings to the unique, indigenous Pálava of Moravia. Each glass is paired with a gourmet platter of local cheeses and snacks, allowing for a relaxed reflection on the day’s discoveries.
