The Vienna Museum of Art History opened its doors in 1891 and was inaugurated by Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria-Hungary. Much of its collection comes from the House of Habsburg. Its collection of Renaissance and Baroque musical instruments is considered the most important in the world. It also houses a large number of paintings by Pieter Brueghel the Elder and Titian. There are also important paintings by Velázquez, Rubens, Vermeer, Bosch and Arcimboldo, as well as the Saltcellar of Francis I of France by Benvenuto Cellini and a very large numismatic collection. The search in the catalogue can be filtered using a timeline or by selecting the type of object, medium, material, period, personality to which the object represents or is linked, and in alphabetical order.
